    There is a considerable distance in between what Durand Jones & The Indications sound and fun is, to this debut solo project from Durand Jones. It is also easy to see it on the solo debut project of Aaron Frazer: "Introducing..." (2021).

It is also easy to see it on the solo debut project of Aaron Frazer: "Introducing..." (2021). Durand Jones & The Indications are a better explored bound breaking project and very fun, to what these guys are proposing themselves, yet, there is still a much bigger soul and sensibility in these projects that in any other just because this is an important opportunity for them to be their more nature and truest self, with no expectation. That is why we should be taking the change to listen to them too, because this is an awesome way to get to know the roots of much bigger ambitions.… Expand

    A very fun yet reflective album that combines sounds from both old and new soul music to create an experience that is weirdly nostalgic yet still comments on issues that affect modern life in the USA's southern states.

    Seemingly posed as a promise and threat, Wait Til I Get Over is a striking and poignant deviation..

    This meeting of varying experiments is at the core of Wait Til I Get Over, Jones is able to challenge himself while still keeping the narrative of the LP intact, an expedition that could’ve given us countless results. What we got was an album that sits in the middle ground of the past and future, toying with the present in order to give the listener a full experience rather than a simple collection of songs.

    It’s a record that’ll please newcomers and existing fans alike, but, given the backstory and heart poured into ‘Wait Til I Get Over’, the record existing for Jones feels like a triumph. Whether or not he brings these sounds or elements back to the group is yet to be seen, but this record will shake the walls of Hillaryville and beyond.
