Chris Duarte, a San Antonio native was born in February of 1963, the same year as his Strat. His goal, to be a successful musician and write music for all the world to hear. His choice instrument, the guitar and at the age of 15 his career of being a musician began. At the tender age of sixteen he dropped out of high school and moved to Austin, Texas to further develop his musical career. Several years later, Chris met a man by the name of John Jordan who would become Chris' best friend and co-founder of the Chris Duarte Group. John, like Chris was born with music in his blood. Although John's first instrument was piano, he would become the bass guitarist for the Chris Duarte Group. Together they would travel to over 300 dates on average per year for over 15 years straight. It was then that Mr. Jordan departed from the group to pursue a solo career and to open his own Record company called Tana Records. The band still continues to play well over 200 nights a year in every state and many countries abroad. Collectively, the Chris Duarte Group has realeased a total of four albums. Texas Sugar Strat Magic (1994), Tailspin Headwhack (1997), Love is Greater then Me (2000) and Romp (2004). the band is due to hit the studio in December of 2006 for release number 5 from the Chris Duarte Group. Since then CDG has put out Vantage Point (2008) and it poised to release a new cd with Bluestone Co. called "396". Now based out of Atlanta, GA. Chris is backed by Joel Powell on Bass and Chris Burroughs on Drums. Get ready to have your face rocked off! Chris Duarte has been known to play guitar till his fingers bleed.

Chris, got the DVD from Craig last week. Lots of good older stuff in there along with the newer. Glad I added it to my collection, but for the life of me I can't figure out why I need the 3-D glasses he put in there. Wow, put me back in the 70's for a while there!
Great show at the Handlebar tonight! 10 years since seeing Chris Duarte live!
Don't know what's cooler, not knowing what the hell you were doing to that guitar when I was 14 (but knowing I wanted to do it, too) or not knowing what the hell you were doing to that guitar when I'm 24! Haha!

Hello there stranger, When u playing vegas again? I have to get out there soon to see my Dad. Actully, need to be living with him & step mom with the condition they are in...but I'd miss my doggie and don't know if I can afford to fly her also. Anyroad, what's up with you, don't get on here much anymore...facebook only if I have time. By the way it was a good thing you didn't hire Jerry-JP for ur drummer. He can't even get his band in gear as his dad is bad off too and he has to stay in Cali to take care of him and his band's in AZ. Take care & write when u can, Carla
Hey Chris Lookin' forward to meeting you when we both appear at The Great Southern Blues & Rockabilly Festival at Narooma, Australia in a few weeks ! your blues buddy Henry
