Spoon has been keeping a low profile since They Want My Soul, but over the weekend the band’s vocalist-guitarist Britt Daniel and keyboardist Alex Fischel played Festival Marvin in Mexico City. There they debuted a new song, “I Ain’t the One,” their first since premiering “Satellite” in Houston in late 2014.
Even as an acoustic set, “I Ain’t the One” has that distinctive, brooding Spoon sound. Daniel and Fischel also paid tribute to two of their musical inspirations who died this year, David Bowie and Prince, with covers of “I Can’t Give Everything Away” and “Under the Cherry Moon,” below:
