Ricky Duran garnered international attention with his soulful vocals, fiery and tasteful guitar playing and compelling performances on NBC’s The Voice. The Season 17 Runner-Up has since released a single charting at No. 1 on iTunes and sold out shows, showing himself to be more than a fleeting show success - he retained fans and amassed more. He truly is an irrefutable talent and electrifying entertainer making music for the soul.
