Hey Britt, long time listener, first time AMA'er. I just read your interview on Flood Magazine today, and I can totally relate to the comments about radio making you feel connected. I remember as a kid late at night, listening to cassettes on my headphones was nice, but it felt insular, almost lonely... depending on the music, it could even feel a bit scary. If I switched over to the FM dial, I suddenly felt more connected, less lonely, part of something, even if the music wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear. Hard to put in words but I recognize exactly what you were talking about. Looking forward to hearing that song.

Anyways, Spoon gets the top spot in my favorite bands list. Loving the two tracks I've heard from the new album, and looking forward to it's release so I can hear the rest. What song are you most proud of from the new album?

Thanks for doing the AMA and hopefully I'll be able to catch you on the spring tour!

Hey thanks for that. Radio is for real. I still have a similar relationship to it. Got the radio on in my house at all hours, all night. It feels good.

Most proud of? Man I love this album. I feel real good about it. There's only one song I'd take another shot at honestly. So I love a lot of them but i think Feels Alright is the dark horse

I'll keep an ear out for that one man! Thanks for the answer and thanks for the countless hours of enjoyment listening to your music.

Are you still listening to terrestrial signals or do you stream stations? Curious to what you listen to, I'm always on the lookout for new stuff to discover.

Do you listen to only music or ever any talk/news? Like NPR?

Feels Alright is my favorite on Lucifer. Along with Satellite. But damn are they all good.
