Had me at the beat... Man, where have these guys been.. I can live on this kind of music..Soothing, Cant wait for my baby to get home so I can dance with her to this jam..
I found these guys on YT in 2017 and have followed their work since then. They came to play in Toronto the week before the first lockdowns started here in 2020 and it was til this day my all time fav show ever! They're so amazing live.
Gotta say, Durand Jones and the Indications are the Best Of the Ol school music in the flavor of the Delfonics, Chi lites, Blue Magic and any Ol school groups with the similarities. I got turned on to these gentlemen by a good friend who said HEY YA GOTTA HERE THESE DUDES! Been listening since. People think that the ol school style is done don't realize that it was a Hiatus. Durand Jones brought the sound out of Hibernation. Thank you fellas!!👍🎶
Just got home on Friday after work said I'm not gonna drink tonight...opened RU-vid typed in soul 2018 and wow got dang😀 got me a 12pk and just chilling loving my beer even more 😉
I just learned of this band a few days ago. I have never felt such intense goosebumps on my body ever before like I do when I listen to their music! I have watched this video several times. I find myself humming the four songs throughout my day at work. I'm hooked! I can truly say I love the creativity and talents of all these musicians!
Here I am again, listening to this amazing set! I was in a bad head funk about 30min ago. Decided to listen to these brilliantly talented musicians to help me get topside. Mission accomplished! ❤️
I'm late to the party but dear God am I just happy to be here. I haven't been this excited about finding new music in a long time. Maybe years. I forgot how good it felt to vibe out with some headphones on and get lost.
Stumbled upon these guys in the deep dark RU-vid suggested section and I ain’t even mad. God bless these gentlemen for giving this generation that oldies sound. Maybe there is hope after all.....
First song I heard was "Is it any wonder" and then I started following these guy and I thought wait..... You mean the guy that sings "Is it any wonder" isn't the lead singer??? He's the drummer?????? I bet all of these guys are talented enough that this band has 5 lead singers lol
Oh man this group should be played on the radio all over the world. They should be winning Grammys not the nonsense that is out there now. Soulful music with a meaning ,not bashing anyone or degrading women.
Let me begin by thanking station KEXP for this post and providing such programing as this. Secondly, my admiration for the young men who comprise Durand Jones & /the Indications. During this global pandemic that is affecting us all, people of color, particularly black men, in America received a reminder on Monday night, May 25, 2020, that at any time you may lose your life by the hands of someone sworn to serve. My 19yo son is in prison and I'm sending him your music knowing it will give him pause, an escape for a while from his present condition as it has me, a 71yo black man in America.
Seen them in concert three times now. As amazing as the album sounds, it's a different level when you see/hear it up close. Can't wait for a new album hopefully very soon!
Kristi bv Hale if you’re up to it, check out St. Paul and the Broken Bones on youtube. They played a live video for this same studio KEXP. God bless ❤️🤘🏼
The whole band, as a team, just heard y’all today for the first time..first song I heard was “is it any wonder”, listened to it several times and shared it on fb... brings you back to when first fell in love. They’re all so humble, (stay that way!!) every single one of them bring out the best in each other’s talent.. just hooked.💕 [have to add: PLEASE remain the same, don’t give in to “Hollywoodin’ it up”!]
It took an episode of HBO's Mrs Fletcher to find these cats. That's all right. Now that I've heard more, I'm a fan. Come to Chicago and we'll be there to see you.
Thank you all for bringing JOY to my life. Unbelievably Awesome talented group. I have been listening to you and oldies forever and you all are Amazing. I blast you all day at work. GOD Bless you for being so soft and peaceful. We need that right now! and 4 ever. sfbay
Blake dude sounds like Jodecy he got strong vocals their songs are all tight their music gives a brotha chillz I takes me down the varrio past Whittier Blvd past the Taco trucks seeings kidz and family all walking all peaceful and mellow just want to say Durand Jones and the indicators are a hella good gruep keep preaching diversity
One of the best live acts I've ever had the chance to see, and I've been lucky enough to see them twice. So glad these guys are getting broader recognition.
I found this band by pure coincidence boy was I hooked. A truly great band old school music whenever I give friends a drive they are so impressed by the sound they all say is that 60's band, they all love the music.
Man, I can hear some James Brown in this singer's voice, so raspy, smooth & of course Soulful. I wish them the Best in their career of being a great success as a group.🙏✌❤👍💚🙂
Fantastic music and voice is crisp and sparkling. This is the first time, I heard these gifted musicians. YOW!!!!! Where can I buy a CD. I differently will be sharing this soul loving music with my homies and music lovers. Excellent, amazing Durand and your band members.
Oh my...!!! I just had this recommended by a friend. I love me my Motown and everything else true and honest classic soul, mostly from a european-scooterist-loving-and-living-northern-soul-since-forever kinda perspective. I must say that this is the finest I have heard and seen in decades, now. The time has come to have more and more of artists on a somewhat dimilar path, nowadays. But this here?! The complete band is truly perfectly set up. I have never heard nor seen any other musicians in soul music history being, or having been, able to recreate what they did in a studio on stage, at that degree of magical, beautiful perfection. This brings tears to my eyes, comin' right from the deepest depth of my soul. ✊✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 Keep The Faith and Keep On Keepin' On
Love! Love! Love these guys! 💜 Can't wait to see you "Live" at The Bluebird Theatre on Friday April 5th in good ol' Denver Colorado! I am bringing a crew of 15 others to jam with you! Can't wait! 🎶🎊🎶🎉😄🎉🎶🎊🎶
Fabulous! I can see why the host of the show is bowled over. Durand's amazing dynamic range comes through on this recording, some of what you can hear when he is singing live. It is great to see Durand's performance and the band's approach the instrumentals. Their live show has all of this and more.
Here's are some words you don't here often, musical artistry. I am loving this renaissance of real musicians. Just saw Thee Sacred Souls and then Thee Sinseers at the end of the month. This group is in that same vein, just beautiful soul wrenching music. If this group is within 2-5 driving hours of me, I am there.
