I grew up in the 80s. I was exposed to a lot of Canadian music; Canadian pop music in particular. Spoons were one of the biggest new romantic / pop bands from the day. They had huge hits like "Nova Heart" and "Romantic Traffic" to name just two, and were all over radio and video channels.

Since then, they've continued to perform and put out new music for their many fans. I'm always happy to catch a Spoons performance and this year's set at Riverfest was no different. They had a full house of fans that packed the Koop Tent for their set. 

Spoons are a classic Canadian band, still putting out great shows and cool music, that I love to listen to and see live.

I've seen Spoons live a number of times. And I've captured their performances at The Great Hall in 2019, The Ex in 2018, The Ex in 2016, and The Ex in 2014.

All my Riverfest coverage can be accessed through this one post here. Hope you enjoy!

And here's a Spoons song, the classic "Nova Heart"
