Under the Covers: Spoon / The Cramps

Your weekly dose of genre-bending with your favorite WBRU artists/songs! From the genuinely good to the what-the-hell weird, we got you covered.

Spoon appeared on Conan this past Wednesday to perform of a cover of the Cramps’ 1980 track “TV Set.” Conan described their performance as “killer” and we definitely agree. Though the sound of “TV Set” is a bit of a departure from what you’d hear on Spoon’s discography, the band’s energy and intensity makes this cover worth the watch. And if you want to add Spoon’s take on “TV Set” to your summer soundtrack, you can check it out on the Poltergeist soundtrack.
