| Chris Duran |
In the ‘80s and early ‘90’s, if you were part of the metal scene in Portland, you knew who Chris Duran was. Even if you didn’t know his name, he was a force that was simply unavoidable. Be it with Outrage, or later Partners in Crime (see Duran perform for former Outrage members Aaron White and Troy Miller, and former Partners in Crime members Miller, Ted Berry, and Maury Brown at Monsters of Rock PDX), Duran was out front at what is now the Roseland, or places like Eli’s, and beyond spending years on the road touring. His scorching, gritty, powerful vocals always has turned heads.
Duran has moved back to his hometown of Sacramento and came off the road in1992 joining Dead in Spain which lasted about six years after that joined Kattywompus, who still plays in Sacramento, but Portland has always been on his mind.
Over the years Chris has shared the stage with members of Motley Crue, Dio, Loudness, AC/DC, Ozzy Osbourne, Dokken, and Pat Travers, just to name a few.
The “Duranimal” is back for the Monsters of Rock PDX event and is sure to be a crowd favorite. You won’t want to miss.
