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!!👍🎶
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.
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.
Who's watching this in 2024? It is the Christmas holiday as some people celebrate, this has the energy of happiness and makes you get up and dance! 💖. 💞
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
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! ❤️
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..
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.
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
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!
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 TH-cam 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.....
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.
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
Just got home on Friday after work said I'm not gonna drink tonight...opened TH-cam typed in soul 2018 and wow got dang😀 got me a 12pk and just chilling loving my beer even more 😉
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.
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”!]
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.
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!
We saw these guys last night in Nashville, 10/17/22 at the Brooklyn Bowl and they just shook the block with their souls. If you get a chance to see these guys live they're incredible. Go support all live music.
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 ❤️🤘🏼
WOW. "Too Many Tears" by this band just came up in my Apple Music neo soul radio and I was like who tf are these guys? they sound like an old school 60s band. After that one song I had to look them up and sample more of their music. I LOVE EVERY TRACK!!!!
Well, me for one, im soo glad to have that 70s soul sound back with artist like this guy, lady blackbird, October London, aron frazer this is good wholesome family music and i luv it!! Ty.
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.
Finally Real Music!!!!
I can listen to this band all day and forget bout everything that's troubling me
Theres hope for music.....an old rocker from Memphis......
Hell yeah
Right with ya brother!!!!!

Holy shit there's hope for today's music. These guys are awesome old school. Love the drummers voice.
Agree wholeheartedly! These guys are amazing!! love the drummer's voice, and Saxphonist's voice too. Old school beautiful! could listen all day.
Big time! I too now have hope in the future of music..
Right on!
@@lifeloverlorijean Just Love it😍
@@acamaro5648 p
These guys are so smooth, it’s like sitting outside on a covered porch with a cup of coffee and a joint and watching the rain go by…pure pleasure 😌😌😌
It’s 2022 but mentally I’m still here and will never move on.
If u gave this a thumbs down there's something definitely wrong in ur life
Been reading comments. I'm not even surprised by the ammount of Latinos that love this group. We love the soulful melodies and music.
As a white Brit who loved 60s/70s soul, this is amazing. Loving it!
“Is it any wonder” is & will forever be a gem ❤️
You said it sister👌🏽
I can’t keep my cool is the right words a man feels when he finds the right partner

Indeed....❤️
Main vocalist is a beast but I got to say the drummer is god damn amazing I would love to hear him more often
He has a Frankie Valli vibe to him that I cant get over... I love it
carlos adame MAN!!!!! I literally JUST heard the drummer sing and just felt great vibes throughout my body!! Incredible vocals on that young man!!
@@jarrod-rutland: Frazer does have that Frankie falsetto! The dude is amazing! Jones has some pipes too! Awesome group, they work good together.
@@jarrod-rutland I rather hear a white Smokey Robinson
He's a mix of Eddie Kendricks and Smokey, big time
America needs this group right now
These will be “oldies” for the new generations to come.
I'll hope so
Dont forget The Altons, Thee Sinseers, Thee Lakesiders, & Thee Sacred Rose all keeping this music alive
@@thehighofmusic82 forsure, Bobby oroza as well as many others.
@@swetyfootage8284 thanks for that tip I’ll have to check him out
They deserve so much more recognition
Yesss! Now they are!
Who else was just like WOOOOOOOOOW.???!!! 😱😱😱
I'm a Detroiter !!! Love group, reminds me of Smokey, Marvin, and from Chicago, Jerry Butler!!
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.

I just found this band two minutes ago and I'm already hooked!

Some women degrade themselves..a few artist sample on that like we already don’t know , right?

Just discovered this band....this is what good music sounds like....
Omg “Is it any wonder”the drummer 😮 his vocals are amazingly mesmerizing ❤
