Though Spoon\'s style has evolved radically over its 25 year existence, Jim Eno\'s drumming has been consistently tasteful, disciplined, and compositionally clever.

Aside from his work as a drummer, Jim owns the Austin-based studio, Public Hi-Fi, and has engineered and produced for artists such as !!!, Cornell Dupree, John Vanderslice, Alejandro Escovedo, Future Islands, and many others. When we spoke last month, I began by asking Jim if it\'s possible to safely run recording sessions during the pandemic.

Spoon is re-issuing its catalog via Matador, beginning with early albums Telephono and Soft Effects, which will be re-released on Friday.

You can pre-order Joe\'s album NITE CREATURES HERE. All profits through the end of July will be donated to The NAACP Legal Defense Fund.
