Will do sir! I love your positive vibe and wonderful soul! Neo Soul is pretty tight! You should check out Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats 'Need Never Get Old'!

[@allanmarwood5887]

Hey Jamal, have you heard Ziggy Stardust by David Bowie? If not, you should😏

[@rickclark8657]

Excellent band. You should check out the hour they did live from Daryl’s house

[@majorpayton]

That's how I found them.

[@traviskoehler2222]

Best one yet

[@rodders1957]

One of my favourite LFDH sessions

[@marlonrando9272]

They were an excellent band, but they sold out 4 years ago

[@lisak2580]

I LOOOOVE Fitz and The Tantrums. Please react to more of their music!

[@elvisstilllives9990]

You’d probably also like Nathaniel Ratelif and the nightsweats. They have a couple great songs like SOB and I need never get old.

[@RV103]

You worry me

[@quikspecv4d]

This is their best album in my opinion. A lot of great songs. They charge styles in all future albums.

[@marlonrando9272]

Best album for sure, they fucking sold out.

[@cjk5115]

I first learned of these guys (and gal) from Live from Daryl's House and Fitz definitely has a Daryl Hall vibe to his vocals and he and Noelle singing together are dynamite. There isn't a bad song on their first album, Picking Up The Pieces, because it all has this old school R & B vibe to it. Their subsequent stuff has been a bit more poppy - not bad, just different from this. Great reaction as always, Jamel.

[@davidleary4524]

Great version of Sara Smile in particular. Noelle really gets a chance to shine on it.

[@dscratch9667]

@@davidleary4524 luv Noelle😊

[@TracyfromNC]

So great on Daryls House!

[@DIMP11]

Yes Jamel you are exactly right. They only formed in 2008 but they have a throwback 60's and 70's style.

[@mikemarcotte5962]

Notice: no guitar. They're a fantastic live band, too. Noelle has a great voice and great energy. Highly recommend you check out "Out of My League" and "The Walker"

[@RichAdams21]

Check out Fitz and the Tantrums at Daryl's House, especially 'Sara Smile.'

[@hooper4581]

Absolutely

[@heidileigh7023]

Love these guys!! And loved watching you react to them, keep digging into their music, the deeper the track the better the song 💙

[@craigparker9744]

"Make your hands clap" is there hit song.

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

And The Walker

[@davidtee5367]

yeah, Fitz are pretty new, but they always gave me a funky feel. I think you'd like their song Hand Clap too. Also, this is the first time i've seen a video within a minute of it being posted

[@tat_glo22]

The band has been around for awhile. This song came out on their debut album "Pickin' Up The Pieces" which released in 2010.

[@gemsun6512]

Woah! Never heard these guys before but I’m lovin’ them! Thank you Sir for sharing this. Love learning and hearing new great songs and bands!! Thank you thank you!! 🙏✌🏼❤️

[@Ifish4pleasure]

They have alot of great track, dig deeper, you'll be glad you did

[@heidileigh7023]

Haha agreed! Just commented a similar sentiment 💙

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

Agreed!

[@doplinger1]

Gotta check out these guys on Daryl’s House like others mentioned - I had no idea they had such a Hall & Oates vibe!

[@jennhurl]

My best friends name is Fitz She is a world renowned fitness instructor. Everyone calls her Fitzness.

[@arielcordero]

Oh! I love Fitz and the Tantrums. Such a good band.

[@michaelnelson3877]

Fitz and the Tantrums are an American indie pop and neo soul band from Los Angeles, California, that formed in 2008. Happy Birthday Wes!!! My late brother's birthday is the 7th also.

[@wesfizer8991]

Thank you

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

Screamed when I saw you reacting to one of my favorite bands. I have seen them live about 10 times and they always put on a fantastic show...very high energy. If you get the chance to see them live, go. You won't regret it.

[@cometogether999]

Good one Jamel, not a real well known song, but one I really like. Happy Birthday, Wes! Yes, it's a newer song with an old soul.

[@robleffler6584]

You should try "SOB" by Nathaniel Rateliff and The Night Sweats. It's based on his experience of getting sober and has a great old school sound

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

Yes! Great song!

[@billvanderveen4868]

"Howlin' at nothing" is a whole mood AND vibe!!

[@U2hansolo]

Picking Up the Pieces by Fitz is great too! Their whole first album is so good.

[@mike_aka_tinman]

First time I never heard of this group was from The tv show “Suits”. The song was “The Walker”. Good song, great show.

[@jeanneanderson3367]

This showed up in my feed this morning. Been a fan of Fitz & the Tantrums for years. I’m sure you know they were at Brother Daryl’s house; if you had not seen the episode, check it out, you will love it. Thanks again Jamel for a great reaction; happy Friday! ❤️🎤🎺🎹🎷

[@cathycowen8070]

I love when they did this at Live at Daryl’s house. It gives the song new meaning ( record labels). So many artists have been robbed by the music industry. I’m so happy for the ones who survived and thrived in spite of them. Thank you for reacting to another one of my favorites 👏👏👏👏

[@joannaflanagan2006]

Love them so much! Listen to Rich Girls, Tighter, Don’t Gotta Work It Out, Pickin’ Up The Pieces. And yes, they are a current band with an old school sound & look.

[@vaportrails7943]

They got noticed for this awesomeness, got signed to a major label, changed their sound and had some slight hits, but never reached this level of greatness again. This is one of the best songs of the last 20 years at least. They nailed the Motown sound.

[@jeanstrickland2445]

Happy Birthday Wes. 🎂this is the first time I heard this I like it 👍

[@wesfizer8991]

Thanks 😊

[@paulthesaintsfan9137]

If you like this Jamel, I would recommend St Paul and The Broken Bones, specifically their songs Grass Is Greener, Call Me, and Flow With It. All the best sir

[@TracyfromNC]

St Paul and Broken Bones...newer band that sounds like 60s or 70s Motown...fantastic!

[@MuzzikLvr]

About a year before this song came out, I saw Fitz and the Tantrums open for Al Green. They blew me away with their old school vibe and I've been hooked ever since.

[@kbusby4824]

Definitely reminiscent of 80s era Hall & Oates, Maneater vibe. Great request, Wes and happy birthday 🎂.

[@noremak40]

Great song. Great band I started hearing in 2017. They have a fantastic saxophonist.

[@j.kliban9156]

They have great ears, based on their sound: straight up 70's R'n'B--they did a great set on Live from Daryl's House. (If you have the time, check it out!) Thanks for the request, Brother Wes. Happy Birthday!

[@wesfizer8991]

Thanks

[@rick5440]

Always thought they sounded a bit like Hall and Oates.

[@matts6272]

Love me some Fitz and the Tantrums, and yes indeed, they have that old-school Motown sound. Their entire first album is fantastic. You probably know "Hand Clap" too from sporting events.

[@pushpak]

A great song. Should've been a huge hit.

[@carihenson8019]

I saw them live at Taste of Chicago years ago; they were on right before Michael Franti & Spearhead and... their energy is NEXT-LEVEL. So. Good. So much freakin fun.

[@MrRee-px1nz]

Happy Birthday Brutha Wes. Awesome taste in music. FITZ AND THE TANTRUMS. Awesome band.

[@wesfizer8991]

Thanks 😊

[@paulalvey2675]

Seen these guys 3 times, they are FANTASTIC in concert!

[@1972mrgray]

First song I heard by them and I haven’t looked back!

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

Same!

[@Kim-hc5si]

When they com through your town/city - GO! You will not be sorry! 🔥🔥🔥

[@wesfizer8991]

They are good. Thank you Jamel. Much appreciated.

[@NOAHCASAS]

GREAT CHOICE BROTHER WES ✌🏼& LO💚E

[@amyelizabeth529]

Thanks again for the request. And... Happy Early Birthday, Wes! 🎂 🥳 ❤☺

[@cachickadee]

Love this song. I saw them at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass (a free concert in Golden Gate Park) in I think it was 2012. They were great live.

[@dragdragon23]

Love the energy they put into the visual and audio. the girl was flying, their all beautiful!

[@benshafer5198]

These guys are great and definitely are all about that old school retro vibe. You hit the nail on the head, about 10 yrs ago. Michael Fitzpatrick came up idolizing Daryl Hall, so it was a big deal for him to do Live at Daryl's House. That would be a perfect next stop. Their second album was cool, as well, and changed up the style a bit. Check out The Walker from that one ✌

[@ericcowsill7821]

Such an awesome old school 60s vibe. That’s a lost art. Amen these guys found it.

[@maggieswensen2385]

They were invited to LFDH...Live from Daryl's house and it was a good gig. Good song! You have great moves Jamel...and I was 18 years older than my hub...was 24 and he was 42...and the 3rd wife. Ya know what they...3rd times a charm...and I ain't no money grabber either!😁😇

First song I heard by Fitz and the Tantrums, and it’s still on my playlist.

GREAT BAND FIRST SONG I HEARD FROM THEM "🎶 OUT OF MY LEAGUE 🎶" THAT HIT THE RADIO OVER 7 YEARS AGO THAT SONG NEVER GET OLD NEITHER DOES THIS ONE TOO THANKS JAMEL_AKA_JAMAL ✌🏼& LO💚E MY BROTHER

[@TheOriginalAverageJane]

I've seen their live shows twice and they are really great.

[@marleinasmom]

I LOOOOVE Fitz and the Tantrums, and I never would have heard them if it wasn't for a Criminal Minds episode.

[@cassidymd72]

Love ❤️ Fitz and the Tantrums.

[@caitlinw.2370]

I saw them in 2013 in Missouri, and they put on a great show! Invited kids on stage to sing and dance along. Just so much fun.

[@westonwalls385]

This song plus Picking Up the Pieces, We Don't Got to Work it out, and Winds of Change from their first album. Out of My League from the second album. Glad you are finally discovering this band!

[@OwenGalicia]

Ahhhh you got to see them perform “The Walker”, “Out of my League”, and “Spark”

[@WhatDeFrock]

Fitz and the Tantrums - Winds of Change. Best song by them.

[@hicksboson1]

I've been so in love with her for years she's awesome

Happy Birthday Wes!

[@wesfizer8991]

Thank you 😊

[@thisismagacountry1318]

Happy Kwanzaa, my brother

[@thisismagacountry1318]

You should check out Broke Down on The Brazos by GOVERNMENT MULE, a great Southern Blues band.

[@carenhelms8518]

Wes, happy early birthday! Thank you for requesting this. I adore Fitz and the Tantrums!

[@wesfizer8991]

Thanks 😊

[@ericwilliams1031]

I just now saw that you did this reaction. I love this song! One of my favorites!!😁

[@hicksboson1]

Let me tell you right now I saw them at a free concert in Golden gate Park and was right in front of the stage dancing barefoot it was one of the most amazing shows I've ever had the privilege of experiencing

[@hicksboson1]

Yooooooo. Me too I was dancing in mud in Golden gate Park where they were playing it was incredible

[@danieltsuedo334]

excellent song…, great stuff. HBD Wes.., enjoy. Also, thanks to all the comments that list other songs to dip into.

[@nicquinn7291]

Hand Clap is a great song by them. They’re a newer alternative band.

[@woolhatkat]

You'll love their live/concert recordings on KZbin. They're electric. I had already loved them for their great sound, clever wordplay, and amazing voices, but that concert experience did something to my soul, I think.

[@mamamac7069]

These guys were on live at Daryl's House a few years ago and were great! They have a lot of good songs. Dive in! 😁 BTW, they aren't that new really. I love their song "Out Of My League" and it came out in 2013. 🤷‍♀️

[@randyg.1836]

Yes! Yes! Finally!!!! It's Fitz and the Tantrums !!!! Thank you!!!

[@Joe-Flow]

Would it be possible to pay a visit to Mr. Steely Dan again? My vote goes to "I Got the News." It's the one song you didn't react to on Aja, plus it's got a fantastic soul brother making an encore.

[@trishafrick2889]

Yes i seen them in concert in Detroit Michigan

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

Last band I saw before the pandemic, first band I saw after concert restrictions were lifted.

[@thecat6062]

Their song "Out of my League" is another good one.

[@MusicWithToddLedbetter]

Happy birthday brother Wes. You're very talented.

[@wesfizer8991]

Thank you

[@kenstanley2567]

Happy Birthday Wes!!! From Ontario Canada 🇨🇦

[@JTsays-gx7gc]

All their stuff is awesome, if you love music, you should love them. You owe it to yourself to hear all their stuff.

[@robertcasso3139]

Great group

[@10lightshow]

Love this group, “Don’t gotta work it out” is my jam that got me hooked on this sound.

[@TheRedWaltz24]

Their entire first album was amazing. One of my favorite in the past decade. Worth listening to the whole thing. They were also on Live From Daryl's House. Great episode. I'm still waiting for your Chromeo reaction. Another contemporary band (in the past 15 years) with a retro sound.

[@pubuapubua]

'Breaking the chains of love' sounds even older!

[@mikethej4218]

Sniff and the Tears...Drivers Seat

[@p.a.stewart5446]

Happy Early Birthday Wes!

[@wesfizer8991]

Thanks 😊

[@absea7918]

Fitz and the Tantrums were guest on Live From Darryl's House, and they were a perfect match. The vocals do sound a bit like Hall. This is from their first album, which is more throwback. Their next albums were more "modern" sounding. Good, but I prefer the "throwback" myself.

[@glenndowling8383]

As the man said, “hold’on!”

[@cclepew]

I've always called them The Hipster Hall & Oates lol. In the best possible way, of course.

[@carladicarlo3255]

Thanks for this one! Great band but I’ve never seen anyone react to them yet.

[@johncampbell756]

Happy Birthday, Wes!

[@sallysharp3845]

This song came out I believe in 2010. There is still good music coming out in the 21st century, you just need to know where to look. Another great newer bands is Lake Street Dive. Check out their song "Bad Self Portaits", you won't be disappointed.

[@jeffflowers5489]

Good song. I liked the look with the multicolored silhouettes.

[@clemigula4228]

Their whole first album is really good!

[@traci4187]

Hmmm... Have you done any ABC yet (I honestly can't keep track)? That band is in the style of this song. Check out "When Smoky Sings", "The Look of Love" and "How to be a Millionaire"

[@pattycake9183]

Have you ever reacted to any Fine Young Cannibals? I love Roland Gift, great songs.

[@jayholewinski]

This band in incredible.

[@violetviolent7980]

Underrated amongst many indie modern musicians act, which I think is incredible no need to become mainstream too much politics, seen too many acts start off amazing end up a souless puppets.

[@Morkennick]

Great song!!
