We had such a good time recording our latest podcast with Sandy Horne from the Spoons. That’s why we’re looking forward to sharing this interview with you all so much. There’s a ton of great stuff about the band and the latest album, New Day New World, and the striking video they’ve released for Landing Lights.

A seminal  Canadian new wave/synth-pop group, Spoons had an impressive list of hits Including Nova Heart, Romantic Traffic, Old Emotions and Tell No Lies. In 2019 they released New Day New World, proving  the band’s musical chops are strong as ever.

Sandy Horne gives us the update on the album’s creation, and some interesting insight into the songs on the record. It leads to a fascinating talk on how she is spending her time during Covid-19, looking back at the hours and hours of uncompleted music in her archives. 

The new video Landing Lights it’s also a major topic on the show, as it has a strong message of thanks to those in the front lines fighting against the Coronavirus pandemic.  This is an extremely personal message for Sandy and other members of the band, and she explains to us why.

We also  share some laughs, as Sandy regales us with some great stories of life on the road and people hearing the lyrics of their songs incorrectly. It’s some of the funniest stories ever told on the We Talk Music podcast. And of course we ask the question on everyone’s mind about her 80’s hairstyle!

Sandy Horne is a wonderful guest and a lovely person, and we’re very much looking forward to another chat with her in the future.
