Chain Reaction also know as the Stranguers, was an American hard rock band from Yonkers, New York. They had four singles and were most notable for having lead singer Steven Tallarico (Steven Tyler, as he would later come to be known). They started off as the Strangers, before finding a group who already had that moniker, switching to The Stranguers as a result of said group. After a line-up change they changed their name to Chain Reaction.
