Topic: Durand Jones & The Indications

Happened across this nice little band who call Bloomington, Indiana home.  Pretty chill stuff with two great singers.  Their new album, American Love Call, is an album to dance with your partner to.

Re: Durand Jones & The Indications

Got and listened to a lot of their music and went and got tickets for me and my wife to see them in their hometown (Bloomington) at the Bluebird.

Re: Durand Jones & The Indications

How many top class singers does a band need? Wow!!! And am I getting a strong aftertaste of Curtis Mayfield there?

This is something I could sit back, dip in and relax to and would probably take a punt on seeing over here if the chance arose.

Here's another song.  Thanks Mike for replying.  I'm seeing these guys a week from thursday.  They all met at IU's music school which is world renown and their show next week is on their home turf in Bloomington's Bluebird Bar.  I've alway's loved this type music from very early on and this band really echos the best of Stax and Motown.
Maybe I'll get you something autographed.  Btw, it's the drummer that does most of the writing of their music, not Durand.  I hope they can keep that two vocalists sound together cause these guys are just scrtatching the surface of their enormous talent.  The first song I posted, a David Bowie cover, is I feel better than the original which is rare indeed, but indicative of how big these guys can become.
They toured Europe last year so you might get your chance to see them.
