**Bio: Next Movement** Next Movement is a Chicago R&B vocal group that originated in the 1970s on the city’s south side. Inspired by the popular harmony groups of the '60s and '70s, such as the Temptations, Jackson 5, Dramatics, The Dells, and the Chi-Lites, they chose the name "Next Movement" due to their smooth dance moves that often prompted the question, “what’s the next move?” Their first official release, “Girl, Why You Want To Take My Heart,” came out in 1972 on the local Interplanetary label, followed by “Everywhere You Go (I’ll Be Around)” on Crown Town in 1974, which earned them an appearance on the TV show “Soul Train.” In 1976, they performed in Las Vegas with Redd Fox at the Thunderbird. In 1980, they released an album titled "The Next Movement," featuring the mid-tempo track “Never Stop Dancing,” which received national radio play. The group was signed by music industry veteran Gus Redmond in 1984, leading to the release of the classic stepper’s tune “More Love.” The following year, they achieved their first national hit with “All I Do,” which reached #49 on the Billboard R&B charts, both tracks arranged by the legendary Tom Tom. Next Movement was honored to perform at Oprah Winfrey’s 1989 New Year’s Eve Party,
