Overview

Born out of the ashes of Big Star, arguably the greatest cult band of all time, Memphis local Van Duren joined forces with ex-members Chris Bell & Jody Stephens to form a band and become regulars on the 70s Memphis bar circuit.

They fall hopelessly in love with the music and set out to discover why Van Duren isn’t a household name.
