The Magnetic Fields have announced a limited run tour in honor of the 25th anniversary of their sixth studio album 69 Love Songs. The indie pop band will be performing the record in its entirety over two-night residencies from March through April 2024 in five cities. The limited run tour includes performances at Los Angeles’ Theatre at Ace Hotel on Tuesday, April 23 and Wednesday, April 24, 2024.
The Magnetic Fields are pleased to announce a sixteen-date tour of select US and Canadian cities in April 2022. This tour follows their twice-rescheduled Fall 2021 Tour of seven City Winery Locations around the US. These intimate concerts will feature a setlist spanning the band’s three-decade career, including material from their earliest albums in the 1990s and their iconic triple-album 69 Love Songs. The tour is set to kick off on March 22, 2024 at North Adams, MA stopping at cities such as New York, Chicago and Los Angeles before concluding on April 27, 2024 at San Francisco, CA. The tour also celebrates the release of a special 30th-anniversary vinyl edition of The Magnetic Fields’ 1992 EP, “The House of Tomorrow.” Lead singer-songwriter Stephin Merritt will be joined by Magnetic Fields’ members Sam Davol, Shirley Simms, Chris Ewen, and Anthony Kaczinski.
To date, Stephin Merritt has written and recorded twelve Magnetic Fields albums, including the beloved 69 Love Songs and 2017’s critically acclaimed Nonesuch box set, 50 Song Memoir, which chronicled the first fifty years of the songwriter’s life with one song per year. Merritt has also composed original music and lyrics for several music theater pieces, including an off-Broadway stage musical of Neil Gaiman’s novel Coraline, for which he received an Obie Award. In 2014, Merritt composed songs and background music for the first musical episode of public radio’s This American Life. Stephin Merritt also releases albums under the band names the 6ths, the Gothic Archies, and Future Bible Heroes. The Magnetic Fields are currently on their East Coast tour, which has sold-out most shows, visiting cities such as Washington, DC, Boston, MA and Philadelphia, PA.
