Spoon

1 November 2006

Spoon is an American indie rock band from *Austin*, Texas. The band was formed in 1994 by lead singer, guitarist Britt Daniel and drummer Jim Eno.

Members are *Britt Daniel* – vocals, guitar, *Jim Eno* -drums, *Joshua Zarbo* – bass, backing vocals, *Eric Harvey* – keyboard, guitar, percussion, backing vocals.

They signed with Elektra Records in 1998, but the contract was dropped soon after the band released *A Series of Sneaks*. In response to being dropped, Spoon released a two-song EP titled *The Agony of Laffitte*, and were eventually signed to Merge Records.

Spoon has been met with widespread critical acclaim. *Girls Can Tell*, released in 2001, sold more copies than both their previous releases together. *Kill the Moonlight* accomplished the same feat a year later. Their latest album, *Gimme Fiction*, was released on May 10, 2005 on Merge Records.
