OUT: 'Mary Lou' by Spoon and the Forkestra
With their new single 'Mary Lou', indie rock duo Spoon and the Forkestra announce their debut EP 'The Fondest Flinch', which will be out in October of this year. The song is an ode to hopeless love and cheerfully celebrates the people in life who we put on a pedestal out of unreflected
admiration.
For the EP, Spoon and the Forkestra invited the best musicians they know into the studio -
just to get them to play their instruments like three-year-old kids. The result is 'Mary Lou', a
pounding, playful catchy tune somewhere between folk and punk.
In the music video for the song, Spoon and the Forkestra invite you to the heist. If Ocean’s 8
had been created by the directors of 500 Days of Summer - chaotic and megalomaniac like
the band themselves, there is only one goal: stealing Mary Lou from the museum.
