Chain Reaction, also known as The Strangeurs, was an American rock band from Yonkers, New York.
They started off as The Strangers, until finding a group who already had that name, switching to The Strangeurs as a result.
Chain Reaction performed in concert as the opening act for such groups as The Beach Boys, The Byrds and The Yardbirds.

The band then hired Marvin Pataki as lead guitarist and Peter Stahl moved over to bass.
