Spoon

In July 2014, Spoon was riding high on the success of their album 'They Want My Soul,' released just the year before. This marked a significant moment in their career, as it was their first album after a four-year hiatus, a break that had fans eagerly anticipating new music. With 'Small Stakes,' the band showcased their knack for blending catchy hooks with artful lyrics, a hallmark of their style. This live performance on KEXP tightens the connection between the band and their audience, as the studio's intimate setting allowed for a raw and captivating rendition. An interesting tidbit? The seamless transition between their pop-rock sensibilities and more introspective elements really shines through in this performance, indicating the versatility and growth Spoon achieved during this period. Fans could feel the excitement, knowing the band was back and better than ever.
