Jim Eno (Spoon)

Caropop

About this episode

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.
