Durand Jones & The Indications Release Bowie Cover
Durand Jones tackles one of the most iconic and beloved songs of the 1970’s and turns it into a blistering, soul-infused modern day statement. We think Bowie would be proud of today’s “Young Americans”.
Don’t miss this Stopover X headliner on Saturday, March 7th at Ships Of The Sea. Their live shows are legendary.

A big congrats to Stopover returning artist ( and fan favorite!) Tall Tall Trees on the release of his 4th studio album A Wave of Golden Things on Joyful Noise. We can’t wait to see Mike and his amazing illuminated and electrofied “Banjotron 5000” in March.
