Band/artist history
Born in Southern California in late 1951, I grew up with music all around me. From the Classical standards to '40's & '50's Jazz, From "American Bandstand" to "Wolfman Jack", Buddy Holly to Jimi Hendrix, They all left their mark. I've played in bands since my early teens, and all of those musicians I have performed with have left their marks as well. I thank them all. The songs I offer here are the result of that long journey. They include, live band recordings, local collaborations, internet collaborations, and home solo projects. Thank You for listening, Michael Duran.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
From 11 years old, and throughout my life, until arthritis, common sense, and health intervened.
Your musical influences
Rock .. the basis of everything I do. Metal .. To give it a sharp edge. Electronic .. because I like to tinker. Classical .. because it touches the soul with epic grandness. Jazz .. when the spirit calls. World & New Age .. to seek new horizons. Blues .. to cleanse the soul. Progressive & Fusion ... to keep it interesting.
