Spoon recorded two new songs, 'Chateau Blues' and 'Guess I'm Fallin In Love,' this summer in Austin with producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen. These tracks are the band's first new music since 2022's Lucifer on the Sofa. The band began work on a new album and chose to release these two songs immediately because they felt the tracks should be heard now. Both songs have a raw, gritty feel that recalls early-2000s records like Girls Can Tell and Kill the Moonlight. The recordings were created in Austin, TX and Providence, RI. Spoon will start a North American tour in Santa Ana and will join the Pixies on several dates, including Sea.Hear.Now on September 14.
"We started work on an album this year and the way that normally goes, we write, we rehearse, we record, we mix, we get it all wrapped up tightly and then start putting songs out into the world," Britt Daniel says. "But as we finished up the first two songs for the LP, it crossed somebody's mind and eventually all of ours that these two really should come out now. Let's get them out there. And so here they are today, 'Chateau Blues' and 'Guess I'm Fallin In Love.' Two new tunes with distinct personalities that were summoned into the world the past few months in Austin TX and Providence RI."
"Spoon kick off their North American tour tonight in Santa Ana, and then immediately hook up with Pixies, who Britt says are "a band that some may know has long been near and dear to me." Anybody who's heard Spoon's first album, Telephono, knows what an influence Pixes had on Spoon early on. "It's a real pleasure and we're real happy to be getting back into gig world for a sec. See you down front."
