Duran Duran's Bio: Duran Duran (named after a character in Roger Vadim’s sci-fi classic, Barbarella) is an electronic pop-rock band that was part of the new wave music movement in the early 1980s. Created by Nick Rhodes (keyboards) and John Taylor (bass) in Birmingham, UK, 1978, with the later addition of Roger Taylor (drums), Andy Taylor (guitar), and Simon Le Bon (lead vocals), the band has sold more than 100 million records, making them one of the best-selling bands in history.

Their songs are vivid, hook-laden pop that have usually fared well on the radio, but what many remember best about Duran Duran is their iconic music videos. Though many of the videos were tongue-in-cheek, the band never quite escaped the glamorous and decadent jet set image their early videos projected.

The stats on DURAN DURAN are remarkable: a total of over 100 million records sold, 18 American hit singles, 30 UK top 30 tunes, and a global presence which guarantees them huge concert audiences on five continents. More remarkable still is the way they have achieved this, fusing pop music, art and fashion with a unique sense of style and confidence.

When they first broke in the early 1980s Duran Duran single-handedly transformed music video from a gimmicky marketing tool into one of the music industry’s most valued assets. With exotic locations, beautiful girls and stunning special-effects, Duran Duran took the visual imperatives of the New Romantic movement to another level. Their impact throughout the 1980’s was such that Rolling Stone magazine – adapting the old Beatles’ sobriquet – dubbed them ‘The Fab Five.’

Despite the occasional pause and some re-grouping in the 1990’s, Duran today are an unstoppable force who still command the respect of the finest players in the game. On their last album, ‘Red Carpet Massacre’ (released on Epic Records, November 2007) they collaborated with top producers Timbaland and Nate ‘Danja’ Hills, as well as long-time Duran fan Justin Timberlake. For their next offering – their 13th studio album: entitled ‘All You Need Is Now’ they have written and recorded with Grammy Award-winning producer Mark Ronson – a marriage that all parties agree has been a match made in heaven. … Read more
