Yes, it's Spider. You should be able to discern Elvis Costello on backing vocals too, (or was that another song?).

Does anyone know who is singing on this track?

Spider Stacy, with backing vocals by Shane, myself, Elvis Costello and Jem, I think.

Sure. He sings things like "Honky Tonk Women". By the last two albums, Waiting For Herb and Pogue Mahone, he is doing most of the singing, as Shane was no longer in the band by then.
