Durand Jones and the Indications

Louisiana native Durand Jones and his fellow Indiana University Soul Revue alumni in the Indications emerged in 2016 with a hard-hitting debut that sounded like a lost 1971 classic. Their sophomore album, American Love Call, features a set of thoughtful, meditative songs of social consciousness and romantic questioning, and a much more widescreen musical palette. Bonus: Drummer Aaron Frazer's emergence as a falsetto-singing foil to Jones' elastic growl. With Divino Niño.

press release: “Is it any wonder that y’all about to blow up!” –  Robin Roberts, Good Morning America

“...I can attest that witnessing Jones live is very much akin to how I imagine the early shows of his heroes from the ‘60s and ‘70s – tight as hell, bursting with raw emotion and drenched in sweat.” – Variety  

Durand Jones & The Indications are proud to announce their return with American Love Call, out March 1 via Dead Oceans/Colemine Records. Hailed by NPR’s All Things Considered as “old-school soul with a new-school honesty,” The Indications conjure the dynamism of Jackie Wilson, Curtis Mayfield, AND The Impressions. This young band of twenty-somethings are students of soul. Watch the video for American Love Call’s lead single, “Don’t You Know,” featuring both Jones and drummer/singer Aaron Frazer on vocals, below.
