Back in December lovable indie rockers Spoon quietly announced that they would be dropping their ninth full-length studio album this coming this March. The album, the band’s first since 2014’s They Want My Soul, will also see them reuniting with Matador Records, the label that released their 1996 debut LP Telephono. Besides those few details, there has been little to go off at this point except for a vague image the band posted to Twitter last month, which may hint at album art.

On Friday Spoon took to the stage for an intimate secret show at Antone’s in their hometown of Austin, Texas. The tight set ran roughly an hour and saw the band debuting a handful of new songs off their as of now untitled album. The sold out show saw the band playing four new songs along with some of their older favorites. Check out the setlist:
