“Flower Moon” – Durand Jones & The Indications

What’s good family — Chris Campbell here with The Progressive Underground, and it’s time for our Pick of the Week.

This week, we’re giving flowers to Durand Jones & The Indications — a group that’s been steadily defining the sound of modern soul for over a decade.

Their new single “Flower Moon” is a soulful, slow-burning cut off their upcoming album “Flowers,” which drops June 27.

Now if you’ve been following these cats — Durand, Aaron Frazer and Blake Rhein — you already know the vibe. They came up digging into Southern soul and gritty funk in a Bloomington, Indiana basement, and now they’re selling out shows worldwide — from Japan to the West Coast lowrider scene.

This new track pulls from everything they’ve built — solo projects, vintage grooves, modern polish — and delivers a mellow groove full of harmony, maturity, and deep-feeling soul.

Let’s get into it. Here’s “Flower Moon” by Durand Jones & The Indications — this week’s Progressive Underground Pick of the Week.

That was “Flower Moon” from Durand Jones & The Indications. If you dig deeply soulful tracks like this one, tune into The Progressive Underground — Saturday nights at 6 p.m. on 101.9 WDET.

What’s up family? Chris Campbell here with The Progressive Underground, and it’s time for this week’s Pick of the Week. We’re shining the spotlight on Al Lindsey — a Detroit soul singer with a voice as smooth as velvet.

Born in Virginia and raised in Michigan, Lindsey first hit the stage while serving in the military, opening up shows for none other than Jimmy “J.J.” Walker from “Good Times.”

After his service, he came back to Detroit and broke out on his own, dropping solo projects since the late ‘80s, always keeping that classic soul vibe alive.

His latest single is called “It’s Gonna Be Alright” — and its my Pick of the Week. 

That was Al Lindsey with “It’s Gonna Be Alright” — pure grown folks soul for your spirit.

If you’re feeling music like this, don’t miss The Progressive Underground — Saturday nights at 6 p.m. on 101.9 WDET. We serve up soul, nu-jazz, rare grooves, and b-side magic just for you! I’m Chris Campbell. Stay tuned, stay soulful.
