Drawing from diverse Alternative influences, yet morphing it all into their own beautiful arrangements, Austin, Texas’ Spoon is a great story of an Indie band that persevered and made it without having to sacrifice their core roots. The only thing that would keep them out of the Rock Hall is that the number of eligible indie-nfluenced rock bands continues to grow by year, but don't sleep on their chances.
