Join us in the celebration of our local rising star and the reopening of The Hanover Theatre mainstage!You watched him pour his heart out on The Voice. Now, soul singer Ricky Duran brings his passion-driven performances back to his hometown of Worcester, MA for a night that you are not going to want to miss, featuring an opening act from local artist Sam James. Ricky Duran garnered international attention with his soulful vocals, fiery guitar playing and compelling performances on NBCs 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 is an irrefutable talent and electrifying entertainer making music for the soul. His vulnerable songwriting and ability to capture an audience on and off stage transcends trends, while his musical abilities and influences spanning genres shows his music knows no bounds - he is timeless and a genuine creative that no label can penetrate. Durans performances on The Voice charted high on iTunes, with his original song, "A Woman Like Her, topping the iTunes Charts in all genres. Duran was born with music in his blood. Taught by his father at the young age of six, he knew that following a career in music was his destiny. He was awarded a scholarship to pursue a degree in music performance and business at Berklee College of Music and graduated in 2011. Prior to his success on The Voice, Duran had been a full-time working musician in his hometown of Worcester, MA. Most recently, he moved to Austin, TX to further his music career. This will be his homecoming show after his debut on The Voice. He will be performing never-before-heard original music, already released original songs and songs which were performed on The Voice. Sam James, a Worcester native, appeared on season 3 of The Voice as a member of team Adam, and more recently on the new hit NBC show, Songland, alongside John Legend and Ryan Tedder. He is currently signed to BMG out of Nashville, TN and has penned songs for artists including Bebe Rexha, Dolly Parton, Galantis, Dzecko and others. His work on the soundtrack for Dreamworks Abominable won him a Hollywood Music in Media Award in November of last year.
