Spoon was formed in late 1993 by lead singer/guitarist Britt Danieland drummer Jim Eno. The name Spoon was chosen to honor the 1970s Germanavant-garde band Can whose hit song "Spoon" was the theme song to the movie Das Messer. Eno describes Spoon's music as "rock 'n' roll."
The Bravery's frontman-songwriter Sam Endicott and keyboardist John Conway were classmates at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, NY in the late '90s. As freshmen, their musical partnership began inauspiciously, playing local bars in mock-ska band Skabba the Hut, which also included CSI: Miami star Jonathan Togo The two went on to play together in numerous bands and recording projects, including new wave outfit Conquistador. Upon moving to NYC in early 2000s, Endicott joined power pop band The Pasties. Leaving the band two years later, he switched from bass guitar to vocals and began writing music that would later become "The Bravery".
