Shawn discusses the influence of producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, who helped U2 explore atmospheric textures and a more expansive style. He reflects on how Unforgettable Fire captured U2's emerging artistic vision, blending rock anthems with introspective and political themes that still resonate today.Meanwhile, Craig shifts the spotlight to one of his favorite bands, Spoon, focusing on their acclaimed album Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga. Known for its tight, innovative production and catchy yet complex sound, the album showcases Spoon's knack for blending indie rock with soulful, groove-laden elements. Craig breaks down tracks like “Don't You Evah” and “You Got Yr. Cherry Bomb,” explaining how Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga became a modern classic that cemented Spoon's reputation as one of indie rock's most consistent and creative bands.Together, Shawn and Craig explore the unique impact of these two influential albums from different eras, highlighting what makes each record a standout in their respective genres. This episode is a journey through the evolution of rock, showcasing how U2 and Spoon have crafted timeless music that continues to inspire listeners around the world.

For the 10th anniversary of Spoon's 8th full-length album, They Want My Soul, we take a detailed look at how it was made. After Spoon concluded their remarkable run of records in the early 2000s with 2010's Transference, they took a much needed break. During this time, Britt Daniel formed Divine Fits with Dan Boeckner, while Jim Eno produced records for other artists. When Spoon got back together, they added new member Alex Fischel on keyboards and opted to work with producers Joe Chiccarelli and Dave Fridmann for the first time. Having that time apart gave them a new perspective on the band as they worked to expand the sound, incorporating more keyboards, hip hop and electronic influences and unique production approaches. The result was They Want My Soul, eventually released in 2014. In this episode, Britt Daniel describes how he approached songwriting for this album and how he wanted to move away from the “minimalist” label that the band had been given previously. By demoing the songs in a variety of different ways, he describes how the songs evolved in the studio and how producers Joe Chiccarelli and Dave Fridmann helped shape them. Jim Eno talks about the sense of fun that the band had with this record and how they were enjoying trying new approaches, while recommitting to making good music together. Additionally, Alex Fischel describes first being asked to join Divine Fits and how that transitioned into a role in Spoon. With Fischel brought in to the band and with Fridmann's fingerprints all over the record, they describe how the sound of this album led to the next era of Spoon. From recording in two halves and switching producers midway to Dave Fridmann's mad scientist approach to mixing to the influence of Dr. Dre's 2001 album on “Inside Out” to the spontaneous last minute recordings of “Rent I Pay” and “I Just Don't Understand,” we'll hear the stories of how the record came together.

This week's guest Rob Kassees (1001 Album Complaints Podcast) brings us Spoon and their deceptively sparse, sonically luscious 2002 release 'Kill The Moonlight'. Britt Daniel and company employ a less-is-more approach that feels effortless and often had us pondering, "Does it rock or does it groove?" Yes. Songs discussed in this episode: The Way We Get By - Vitamin String Quartet; Green Shirt - Elvis Costello & The Attractions; Servo - Brian Jonestown Massacre; Small StakesThe Way We Get By - Spoon; Gravity Rides Everything - Modest Mouse; Some Weird Sin - Iggy Pop; Something To Look Forward To, I Turn My Camera On, Stay Don't Go, Jonathan Fisk, Paper Tiger, Someone Something - Spoon; Ticket To Ride - The Beatles; Don't Let It Get You Down - Spoon; Do You Remember Walter - The Kinks; All The Pretty Girls Go To The City, You Gotta Feel It, Back To The Life - Spoon; Big In Japan - Tom Waits; Vittorio E, Love Song (The Damned Cover) - Spoon

Spoon are one of those bands that are quiet achievers. Over 25 years they've put out 10 albums and toured all over the world… they've weirdly never become super famous, but have a very dedicated bunch of fans. And I say weirdly, cos frontman Britt Daniel knows how to write a hit.He's one of my favourite songwriters, and you can hear in Spoon's songs and their curiosity that there's a deep love for music and melody. From Sinatra to Prince to Gambino, this is a fall down the rabbit hole of a great musical mind.Gloria Jones - Tainted LoveFrank Sinatra - Strangers in the NightPrince - If I Was Your GirlfriendAC/DC - Rock And Roll DamnationChildish Gambino - Redbone

Spoon are playing in New Zealand soon with The War On Drugs, their singer Britt Daniel called up for a chat about life on the road with Weezer and what they'll get up to in Wellington when they arrive a few days early. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Our core philosophy here at Matador Revisionist History HQ is “What you want, once we're ready.” And this time, we're really living up to that. Last summer, we celebrated the 20th anniversaries of Interpol's Turn on the Bright Lights and Spoon's Kill the Moonlight – two career-defining records that were released on the very same day in August of 2002.    Around that time, front men Paul Banks and Britt Daniel huddled with our host Matt Sweeney and taped an episode of the RH podcast. Seven months later, we're finally prepared for you to hear it.   Everybody on this episode goes way, way back: Sweeney met Daniel during Spoon's first tour. He met Banks when Turn on the Bright Lights was released, which is around the time Banks initially met Daniel. They reminisce about NYC's Luna Lounge, Paul explains the importance of yelling in an Interpol song, and Britt stakes his claim to the cowboy hat from the “Wild” video.

This is the closest thing to a live episode you will ever get! I talk with Britt for over an hour about the state of the band after they released two albums in 2022, got back on the road, and got nominated for a grammy! Then I asked all your fan submitted questions which was just a ton of fun! Thanks to all the fans who listen, and those who submitted questions!

Programa transmitido en radio digital. Entrevista con Britt Daniel de Spot

Spoon's Britt Daniel and Alex Fischel sat down with Lana Gay before their show at Budweiser Stage August 26 to chat about their tour with Interpol, album anniversaries, and more!

Spoon, a critically acclaimed rock band from Austin, Texas, consists of front man Britt Daniel, drummer Jim Eno, Ben Trokan on bass, and guitarists (as well as keyboardists) Alex Fischel and Gerard Larios. Critics have often described the band's musical style as “art rock” or “experimental rock.”  Formed by Daniel and Eno in 1993, the band has released ten albums and undergone quite a few roster changes over the years. These days, Britt Daniel and Jim Eno remain the only founding members, with other current members having joined in the late 2010s. The band's latest album is Lucifer on the Sofa, and Spoon is currently on a North American tour, with a show in Edmonton and an appearance at Calgary FolkFest.  Ever the music fans, the band is heavily influenced by a wide range of musicians and popular bands from their formative years, including rock legends like The Beatles. In this episode of CKUA's Hidden Track Podcast, Spoon members Britt and Alex join Grant Stovel to discuss their love of music, the inspirations behind their latest album, and how radio played a huge role in their musical development. 

Britt Daniel drops in to chat about the tour, songs the new album Lucifer on The Sofa and more.

Spoon's Jim Eno doesn't appear to be doing anything fancy when he drums, yet his deceptively groovy playing makes you want to move. He and frontman Britt Daniel, the two remaining original members, keep Spoon sounding unmistakably like Spoon amid the band's constant growth, changes and innovations. Much of the band's guitar-heavy latest album, Lucifer on the Sofa, was recorded at Eno's Austin, Tex., studio, with Eno having established himself as a producer with Spoon and artists such as Alejandro Escovedo (and he's got a fun story about working alongside Bowie producer Tony Visconti). Eno takes us inside Spoon's creative process, how Daniel presents the songs, how Eno approaches playing them, how a seemingly straightforward rocker like “Held” is driven by experimentation and how the band learned to be happy again.

Dave chats to members of Spoon – Alex Fischel and Britt Daniel – about the band, their music and the release of their new album, ‘Lucifer On The Sofa'

Ryan, Brandice and Nicole talk about the soundtrack to the 2006 Marc Forster film, Stranger than Fiction. The soundtrack was originally promoted as a Britt Daniel score, but it turns out that Brian Reitzell co-scored the film with Daniel as well as helming the role of soundtrack supervisor. They chat about the many Spoon songs included in the film, including the song "The Book I Write", which was written specifically for the film. They also discuss one of the pivotal scenes in the film where Will Ferrell covers Wreckless Eric's "Whole Wild World" in what may be one the more touching scenes in Will Ferrell's career, and they talk about how the film doesn't feel very 2006 and how the soundtrack plays a role in that feeling.

In 2002, for issue 27 of Tape Op Magazine, I visited Jim Eno and Britt Daniel of the band Spoon at Jim's converted 2-car garage studio in Austin, Texas, to talk about making records. It's now 20 years later, and Spoon's 10th album, Lucifer on the Sofa, is out. I talked to Jim about his Public Hi-Fi Studio – the multi-story building that replaced his garage – Spoon's new album, and gender inequality in the studio over Zoom. Enjoy!

Walter Martin's most efficient writing process involves not sitting down with the intent to create. Also: being hungover helps. Like most songwriters tell me—Britt Daniel of Spoon was the last one—Martin does not sit down to write a song. “When that happens, it comes out the wrong way. I start to sound too smart or like poet,” he says. Instead, he's writing all the time by constantly observing his surroundings. Song ideas come to Martin throughout the day, like when he's mowing the lawn, and that's when he whips out the phone to record those ideas. So when he finally sits down to write, there's a wealth of source material. Martin does find one state of mind to be especially productive: hungover. More than a few songwriters have told me that having a hangover is a great state of mind to write in. Most tell me that it's because the pain gives them a sense of serenity. But Martin's theory is pretty simple: the residual alcohol gives his head just enough looseness to spur his creativity. Walter Martin's latest album The Bear is out March 23. Listen to our interview below!

Spoon's Britt Daniel drops by to talk about the band's 10th and latest album, 'Lucifer on the Sofa,' its Texas origins, and just where he got all that swagger.

Spoon's Britt Daniel catches up with Kyle Meredith to talk about the band's tenth studio album, Lucifer on the Sofa. The lead singer took us into the band's decision to make an all-out rock record, the use of Mr. Jones as a character in music history, and the importance of radio to him as a child. Daniel goes on to talk about Lucifer representing a version of himself, their plans to release more songs from this session, and his appreciation for the band's 1997 release, Soft Effects.

Spoon's Britt Daniel finds that success as a songwriter comes when he's not trying to write songs. The less organization, the better. "When I try to write with intention, I come up empty," Daniel says. But if I'm not trying to do anything, I've been more successful. Trying to be organized can be a dead end." He told me that he likes to start writing without any direction. And Daniel often finds crowded bars and restaurants to be inspiring. Not only does he like the energy of the crowds, but he also uses what he hears and sees as source material. So if you happen to spot Daniel in a bar and he's scribbling away in a notebook, the man may be writing the next Spoon record!

Spoon sind eine der profiliertesten Indie-Rock-Bands der USA. Das neue und 10. Album der Band aus Texas trägt den Titel „Lucifer On A Sofa“. Warum Spoon darauf so wilden Rock'n'Roll spielen wie auf keinem Album davor, hat Gitarrist und Sänger Britt Daniel FM4s Christian Lehner erklärt.

After the release of a ‘best of' collection Everything Hits at Once in 2019, Spoon are back at long last with brand new material - the album Lucifer On The Sofa - a raw, rollicking rock album (complete with new players on lead guitar and bass) recorded as near-as-dammit live. It is an antidote to Spoon's previous (superb, but far more produced) Hot Thoughts (2017). In 30 years, the band has come full circle in the best possible way. Their first record (“not my favourite” says Britt) Telephono was released on indie label Matador, yet Spoon soon found themselves in a dalliance with a major label for their second outing A Series of Sneaks (1998). While that did not end well, it turned out to be the making of the band in a way, Spoon's true beginning. The bitter experience of being dropped gave the band its first big song, the naming-and-shaming ‘Laffitte Don't Fail Me Now' (featured heavily in The Song Sommelier collection ‘Stick It To The Man'), the second song we discuss on the podcast. Almost two decades later the band was back on the Matador label and in a happy place - having consolidated their unique sound on a run of brilliant LPs. The most indie of bands was somehow destined to make their best work while signed to an iconic indie label. I'm glad to say that Spoon's hot streak doesn't end with 'Lucifer'. The album is a fine addition to an outstanding catalogue, already receiving those glowing 4 & 5 star reviews. “It fits perfectly as number 10” in Britt's own economic language. It does indeed. Not only that but the title track and album closer is something different entirely, an inspired (by the pandemic in part) and momentous stroke of genius from a band at the peak of its powers. The only downer on a thoroughly enjoyable career-spanning conversation is the fact that poor old blighty is losing out big time, yet again. Spoon is touring extensively in the USA but has no immediate plans to come to Europe. That doesn't stop me trying to persuade them however. In concluding our chat with the suggestion that Spoon comes over to London in 2023 (the band's 30th anniversary year) to do not just a show but a residency, I've set to work on the very idea…watch this space. Meantime, check out the impressive new record and back catalogue of my favourite - and your new favourite - indie band. Ladies & gentlemen this is…Spoon, as brought to you by Britt himself!Support the show (https://www.songsommelier.com)

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got an unlikely pairing of two performers who share a home state, but it would seem at first glance not too much else—though that's just first glance: Britt Daniel of Spoon and Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top. Now the genesis of this conversation was actually a comment that Britt Daniel made around the time the band announced its new album, Lucifer on the Sofa. About the song “The Hardest Cut,” he simply said that he'd been listening to a lot of ZZ Top in the years leading up to the album's recording. And while the song is certainly no tribute to ZZ Top, you can hear the snarl and bite coming through in its tones and lyrics as well as on a few other place on this collection. It's album number 10 for Spoon, who have had an incredibly strong run over the past almost three decades. Lucifer on the Sofa is out this week, and it stands among their best—catchy, considered, and a bit more raw than recent records. Maybe that's because they recorded it back in Britt's home state, which of course is where the legendary ZZ Top was born as well. Billy Gibbons formed the band with Dusty Hill and Frank Beard way back in 1969, and the original trio rocked consistently for five decades until Hill's death in 2021. The blues-inspired rock band gained traction in the ‘70s with songs like “La Grange” and “Tush,” then took off in the ‘80s as they became superstars of the early MTV era with “Sharp Dressed Man” and “Legs.” They were shoo-ins for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, of course, and not even Hill's death could stop them: His guitar tech and friend Elwood Francis stepped in, and ZZ Top will play shows with Cheap Trick this April—all the dates, naturally, are at ZZTop.com. Daniel and Gibbons talk a lot about what they have in common, which is the state of Texas and specifically its myriad Mexican restaurants. Daniel asks about the legendary photo inside ZZ Top's classic 1973 album Tres Hombres, and Gibbons gets a chance to talk about some of his contemporaries and friends, including Roky Erickson of the 13th Floor Elevators and Bo Diddley, with whom he collaborated on a guitar design, among other things.

Texas-made, it is the first set of songs that the quintet has put to tape in its hometown of Austin in more than a decade. Written and recorded over the last two years – both in and out of lockdown – these songs mark a shift toward something louder, wilder, and more full-color. From the detuned guitars anchoring “The Hardest Cut,” to the urgency of “Wild," to the band's blown-out cover of the Smog classic “Held,” Lucifer on the Sofa bottles the physical thrill of a band tearing up a packed room. It's an album of intensity and intimacy, where the music's harshest edges feel as vivid as the directions quietly murmured into the mic on the first-take. According to frontman Britt Daniel, “It's the sound of classic rock as written by a guy who never did get Eric Clapton.”  While Spoon's last album, Hot Thoughts (2017), bristled with drum machines, synths, and astral moods, the nonstop touring that followed in its wake tugged the band back toward a stripped-down sound. “I liked where we'd gone on Hot Thoughts – it had a specific style and it covered new ground for us – but we kept noticing on the road that the live versions of the songs were beating the album versions,” says Daniel. “And it got us thinking”.

Emerging out of Austin's indie-rock scene in the early 90s, Spoon have gone on to craft a body of work that must be the envy of their contemporaries. The band was in the middle of recording their tenth studio album, back home in Austin, when the first wave of Covid hit America and everything went on hold. In the Drawing Room, the band's frontman, Britt Daniel, explains why that enforced hiatus may have been the best thing for the record.

Scot and Jeff discuss Spoon with Christopher Scalia. Introducing the Band: Your hosts Scot Bertram (@ScotBertram) and Jeff Blehar (@EsotericCD) are with guest Christopher Scalia. Christopher is co-editor of Scalia Speaks: Reflections on Law, Faith, and Life Well Lived and On Faith: Lessons from an American Believer. He's also the Director of Academic Programs at the American Enterprise Institute. Find him on Twitter at @cjscalia. Christopher's Music Pick: Spoon This band from Austin has a case as one of the greatest American rock bands of the past 25 years, but we suspect there are some music lovers who might not be familiar with them. The guys attempt to remedy that situation in this episode. Spoon, essentially, is vocalist/guitarist Britt Daniel and drummer Jim Eno, the only consistent members of the group. And there's that word: consistent. As you'll hear during the show, it's perhaps the best description of Spoon's output. They've never released a bum album. They've never taken a wrong turn sonically and continually put out interesting music. Over the years, the band has evolved from early efforts with clear Pixies/Pavement influences to clearly identifying a “Spoon Sound” — songs constructed with only the most essential elements, featuring shifting rhythms, tight drums, and rock-solid bass lines. Daniel's skill as a lyricist is in finding couplets and phrases that rattle around your head weeks after you've heard a song.  Since GIRLS CAN TELL, the band has subtly added new elements to its songwriting, leaving behind a string of albums that all have their own identity yet that live up to high standards previously set. It's great album after great album, great song after great song. And, it's argued on the show, perhaps one of the greatest efforts of the decade of the '00s. We let the music do a lot of the talking on this episode. Give it a listen, and we're convinced you're going to come out the other side as a fanatic.

This week on The Show On The Road, a conversation with Nicole Atkins, a singer/songwriter  out of Neptune City, New Jersey who has become notorious for making her own brand of theatrical boardwalk soul.  The Show On The Road host Z. Lupetin fell in love with Atkins' newest, harmony-rich record Italian Ice, which came out spring 2020 and was recorded in historic Muscle Shoals, Alabama. Both rumblingly ominous and joyously escapist, standout songs like “Domino” make the record a perfectly David Lynch-esque summer soundtrack of an uneasy 2020 scene that vacillates between fits of intense creativity and innovation and deep despair. Toiling below the radar for much of her career, Atkins is finally enjoying nationwide recognition as a sought-after writer and producer; Italian Ice was co-produced by Atkins and Ben Tanner of Alabama Shakes. While some may try to shoehorn Nicole Atkins into the Americana and roots-rock categories, one could better describe her as a new kind of wild-eyed Springsteen, who also mythologized the decaying beauty of New Jersey's coastal towns like Asbury Park, or a similarly huge-voiced, peripatetic Linda Ronstadt who isn't afraid to mix sticky French-pop grooves with AM radio doo-wop, '70s blaxploitation R&B and airy jazz rock like her heroes in the band Traffic. If you watch her weekly streaming variety show, “Live From The Steel Porch” (which she initially filmed from her parents' garage in NJ, but now does from her new home in Nashville), you'll see her many sonic tastes and musical friends gathering in full effect. Italian Ice features a heady collection of collaborators including Britt Daniel of Spoon, Seth Avett, Erin Rae, and John Paul White. After playing guitar and moving in and out of hard-luck bar bands in Charlotte and New York -- many of which that would find any way to get rid of their one female member -- Atkins' bold first solo record Neptune City dropped in 2007 and three more acclaimed LPs followed, including her twangy, oddball breakout, Goodnight Rhonda Lee in 2017 on John Paul White's Single Lock Records. Much like the tart and brain-freezing treat sold on boardwalks around the world, Atkins' newest work is a refreshing and many-flavored thing and demonstrates that, in a lot of ways, the show-stopping performer, producer, and songwriter has finally embraced all the sharp edges of her personality.

The Opus has one more lesson about The Clash. The same curiosity that drove the English rockers to discover new genres of music also drove them to understand and empathize with the struggles going on far from their homes. That call for political action, of course, is all over London Calling -- right down to its title. Yet the reason why generation after generation continues to answer their call stems from the songwriting itself. These aren't just any ol' political anthems; they're catchy rock songs, the likes of which have crossed borders and cultures for decades. In the third and final episode of our London Calling series, host Andy Bothwell attempts to explain these cross-cultural transmissions. Once more, he's aided by a rotating panel of guests, specifically Spoon’s Britt Daniel, Killing Joke’s Jaz Coleman, AJJ’s Sean Bonette and Ben Gallaty, Worriers’ Lauren Denitzio, Let Fury Have the Hour author Antonio D'Ambrosio, journalist Robert Evans, and filmmaker Joseph Patel. In celebration of the 40th anniversary of London Calling, revisit a selection of The Clash’s best tracks via all major streaming services, and enter to win a Fender Player Precision Bass just like the one Paul Simonon played.

The Opus can't fail with The Clash. The diversity of influences on London Calling go way beyond reggae and dub. In fact, they go deeper than the music itself. This is an album that gets its hands dirty by digging right into the culture that wound up influencing the four English rockers. Is this cultural appropriation? If not, how did they manage to pull it off? And what can musicians today learn from their approach to making music? The Opus attempts to answer these questions as it continues to unpack the iconic double album. In the second episode of our London Calling series, host Andy Bothwell is joined by Spoon's Britt Daniel, Texas country legend Joe Ely, Houston rapper Fat Tony, South Florida Genreless musician Yeek, British LGBTQ activist and Big Joanie drummer Cardine Taylor-Stone, Head of Design for MOMA PS1 Vance Wallenstein, and filmmaker Joseph Patel. What are you waiting for? Join 'em aboard this train in vain above. In celebration of the 40th anniversary of London Calling, revisit a selection of The Clash’s best tracks via all major streaming services, and enter to win both the 40th anniversary London Calling Scrapbook and Super Bundle.

In the first of a new roundtable series, we're taking a look back at the 90s origins of Spoon, and how they went from devotees of Frank Black and Robert Pollard, to one of the most consistently interesting and successful bands of the 2000s. Britt Daniel and Jim Eno, the core singer/songwriter/guitarist and drummer/producer of Spoon, have been at it for almost thirty years. In the 2000s, starting with Girls Can Tell, and up to their most recent release Hot Thoughts, the band has managed to expertly toe the line between slick songwriting worthy of radio, television and film placement, while keeping a shape-shifting edge that expertly slips back and forth between minimalist and embellished production, tied together with Daniel's emphatic but easy on the ears delivery that manages to inhabit Ray Davies, Tom Petty and Prince all at the same time. But before they began their run of successful 2000s releases, the band was almost another tragic tale of the 1990s major label signing frenzy, bouncing between taste-maker Matador for their debut Telephono and EP Soft Effects, to then jump to the majors on A Series Of Sneaks at Elektra that saw them dropped four months after their sophomore release. Like so many before that have carved out long careers, the early years of Spoon reveal a band struggling to channel their influences into something wholly unique while Daniel's begins the process of finding his own voice. Intro - Utilitarian (A Series Of Sneaks) 14:42 - Theme To Wendell Stivers (Telephono) 18:54 - Nefarious (Telephono) 22:43 - Mountain Of Sound (Soft Effects EP) 33:49 - The Minor Tough (A Series Of Sneaks) 47:39 - Metal Detektor (A Series Of Sneaks) Outro - The Agony Of Laffitte (Laffitte 7" single) Facebook / Twitter / Instagram   Zazzle Merch Store   http://www.digmeoutpodcast.com

We finish up our SpoonFest with a look at Spoon fully realized in their 2005 release ​"Gimme Fiction"​.​ With the addition of keyboardist Eric Harvey alongside Britt Daniel's increasing comfortability behind those ivory keys, ​"Gimme Fiction"​ brings the piano to the forefront in several songs, yet still finds time to squeeze in those slightly strange & beautiful, electronic-heavy tunes that Spoon does so well.

Britt Daniel and Alex Fischel talk with Elizabeth McQueen about from where they drew their inspiration for their new release “Hot Thoughts.” During the conversation they touch on Bruce Springsteen’s elevating sax solos, the guitar energy of The Wipers, Dr. Dre’s synth sounds and how audio — and not necessarily lyrics — can transmit powerful emotions.

On today's episode I talk to musician Jason Narducy. Jason began his rock career at the age of ten when he co-founded the band Verböten – one of the seminal acts in the Chicago punk scene. He then went on to become frontman/songwriter/guitarist for Verbow, another beloved Windy City outfit who signed a major-label deal with Epic/Sony during the ‘90s alt-rock bubble and followed that up with an ongoing, nearly decade-long run as indie-rock's secret weapon – serving as bassist and backing vocalist for indie-underground icons like Bob Mould, Robert Pollard of Guided by Voices, Telekinesis and Superchunk. In 2011, Jason started writing his own music again as Split Single, with Spoon's Britt Daniel and Superchunk's Jon Wurster as his backing band. He's released two albums as Split Single, Fragmented World in 2014 and his latest Metal Frames, which is just lovely. This is the website for Beginnings, subscribe on iTunes, follow me on Twitter.

Britt Daniel of Spoon reflects on Prince's legacy and shares his memories of seeing Prince perform. 'He was the greatest performer of his generation,' Daniel says, 'or perhaps of many generations.' From a live interview with Jade at SXSW in Austin, Texas.

Spoon first formed in 1993, when Britt Daniel met Jim Eno in a recording studio in a basement at UT Austin. Over 20 years later, Spoon has released 9 albums including their most recent record "Hot Thoughts". Britt and Jim sit down with host Hrishikesh Hirway to take us on a tour of Austin, Texas. They share stories about their arrival in town, venues old and new, their home studio, and their motel hideaway for writing music. This podcast is made possible by Google Play Music. Search “City Soundtracks” in the Google Play Music app to instantly stream a playlist curated by Spoon and inspired by Austin. This episode features songs by Spoon, Alien Beats, Tear Dungeon, and Dale Watson. This show is produced by Imprint Projects and Pineapple Street Media, edited and mixed by Ann Heppermann. 

Musician Chris Nova (rubybonesband.com) joins Brian and Bill to discuss Spoon's tongue twister of an album title Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga (2007, Merge). Chris talks about discovering the band through hit teen drama the OC. Then we discuss how consistent the band is, Brian's favorite Spoon album A Series of Sneaks, Bill's problem with the band, Britt Daniel and Jim Eno's influence on the production of the album, and much more as we make our way through the album track by track.

Dan Boeckner puts most indie musicians to shame as far as his energy and sheer output. The Canadian musician co-founded the pioneering indie band Wolf Parade, fronted Handsome Furs and collaborated with Spoon's Britt Daniel in Divine Fits. Now, he leads the new band Operators. The band played at OpenAir on the release day of its debut album, "Blue Wave." The record is a continuation of the synthesizer-driven sounds of Handsome Furs with contributions of drummer Sam Brown and keyboardist Devojka.

Indie icon Dan Boeckner is perhaps best known for his role in the legendary mid-2000s post-punk indie rock band Wolf Parade. Since Wolf Parade (sadly) went on hiatus, Boeckner was involved in a project called Divine Fits (with Spoon frontman Britt Daniel) and he started Handsome Furs (with his ex-wife Alexei Perry). Currently, Boeckner has a new band called Operators. Last Gang Records will release the Operators debut full length, Blue Wave, on April 1, 2016. I chatted with the entire Operators line up including Boeckner (on vocals, guitar, and synths), drummer Sam Brown (New Bomb Turks and Divine Fits) and electro-wiz Devojka. Somehow I get this trio to talk about everything including Louis CK, using sex to sell, how Dan and Sam met, being a complete dick, Dave from Japandroids, how collaboration works in Operators, and the beauty of starting over again. I think this is the only interview I've done with a group hug. You'll have to listen. Tracks played on the show... 1) Operators, "Ecstasy In My House" single (2015) 2) Operators, EP 1 (2014) "Truth" 3) Divine Fits, A Thing Called Divine Fits (2012) "Flaggin' A Ride" ** 4) Operators, EP 1 (2014) "Start Again" ALL songs CANCON except **
