Profile:
In 1978, John Taylor (guitar), Nick Rhodes (keyboard) and Stephen Duffy (vocals & bass) formed a band called "Duran Duran." But in 1979, before Duran Duran became wildly succesful, Duffy moved on.

He formed "Tin Tin" in 1982 and within 24 hours had recorded "Kiss Me," which peaked at 155 in the UK charts. Signed to Sire Records in America the following year, the single became a club hit.

In 1984, Stephen "Tin Tin" Duffy was signed to 10 Records. In 1985, a new version of "Kiss Me" made it to number 22 inside a week. Within three it hit silver (250,000). During his time at 10 he released three albums and a slew of singles attributed to Stephen "Tin Tin" Duffy, Stephen Duffy and Dr. Calculus.

1987 saw formation of The Lilac Time which generated several releases before eventually splitting up in 1991. He resumed his solo career as Duffy.

In 1999, he came across an early (1978-1979) Duran Duran tape in storage and met up with former bandmate Nick Rhodes. The two decided to revisit and re-record their earlier material. The result was the album "Dark Circles" under the name "The Devils."

Duffy's journey continues... most notably (chartwise) producing material for Robbie Williams.
