The Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs 25th Anniversary Tour Presented by Adrienne Arsht Center

In celebration of the 25th anniversary of 69 Love Songs, The Magnetic Fields will perform the album in its entirety over two nights. Originally released in 1999 on Merge Records, 69 Love Songs is a beloved, three-disc masterwork that marked a significant breakthrough for the American band. Written and recorded entirely by Stephin Merritt, 69 Love Songs garnered universal acclaim upon its release, landing on year-end best-of lists in Rolling Stone, The New York Times, SPIN, Los Angeles Times and The Washington Post. It received notable praise from Pitchfork, The Guardian, Stereogum and other outlets. The Magnetic Fields are the brainchild of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Merritt, who also releases albums as the 6ths, the Gothic Archies and Future Bible Heroes. With The Magnetic Fields, he has written, produced and recorded 12 albums. He composed original music and lyrics for three music-theater pieces directed by Chen Shi-Zheng, and in 2008, mounted an off-Broadway stage musical of Coraline, for which he won an Obie Award. Merritt composed the score for Academy Award-nominated film Pieces of April and for independent film Eban and Charley. Merritt’s song “The Book of Love” was performed by Peter Gabriel and appears in the film Shall We Dance, as well as in numerous other films and TV shows. Merritt has composed incidental music for the HarperCollins’ audiobooks of A Series of Unfortunate Events and Coraline. The Magnetic Fields will perform 69 Love Songs as it was originally performed in the early 2000s: in full order over two nights, with one half of the triple-disc album performed each night.
