Duran Duran Celebrates New ‘Paper Gods’ Album on The Blend
The exclusive Town Hall premieres at 8pm ET on Friday April 22, with rebroadcasts throughout the week.
Duran Duran burst onto the scene at the dawn of the 1980s with a special sound that channeled glam, art-pop, and dance. Three decades later, and now a household name, they have sold more than 100 million records and continue to perform for screaming fans worldwide. Outlasting many of their contemporaries, they are dedicated to innovating with their fusion of art, fashion, technology, and pop culture. Their most recent release, “Paper Gods,” is no exception.
Marking their 14th studio album and one of their strongest efforts of the past 20 years, “Paper Gods” features collaborations with star producers Nile Rodgers, Mark Ronson, and Mr. Hudson, as well as guest vocals from Janelle Monáe.
In celebration of the success of “Paper Gods” and the band’s current tour, Duran Duran stopped by SiriusXM for a Town Hall with fans, which airs on The Blend at 8pm ET on Friday April 22, with rebroadcasts throughout the week. It will also later air on 80s on 8 and 1st Wave.
Among the topics covered in their fan-driven Q&A was the influence David Bowie had on them, their approach to creating setlists for their shows, and the credence they give to the rock press that once shunned them.
