They're looking at mid to late June premiers and releases for his singles, "Questions For God" and "New Mexico Midnight."

Freddie's two music videos "La Llorona" & "Where the Birds Sing in Spanish" can be seen here and were directed by John Koop.

Winner of the "TEMPE SONGWRITING CONTEST", FREDDIE DURAN has been performing and recording in and around the desert southwest for most of his life (other than three years in the L.A. area.) Back when STAR SEARCH was having local tryouts in Phoenix, he got 2nd place to none other than David Spade. Originally from Alamogordo, New Mexico - he draws upon the beauty and culture of the southwest for much of his inspiration. Thus the label "Adobe Rock" describing his musical style. He also likes to write about the "politics of love and life", creatively blending his musical and verbal vocabulary skills to construct a number of intriguing situations and thought provoking themes. And Freddie’s dynamic voice is the ultimate messenger to deliver all of this information to your ears. Freddie was invited to perform the National Anthem at the Arizona Cardinal’s – Kansas City Chiefs game as part of their Hispanic Heritage Celebration during their inaugural season.
