The Magnetic Fields – 69 Love Songs 25th Anniversary Tour
In celebration of the 25th anniversary of its release, the Magnetic Fields will spend 2024 performing their entire 69 Love Songs album in its entirety over the course of 2 nights —a 3-disc masterwork that marked a significant breakthrough for the American band. The band will be performing the full record for the first time in over two decades. Starting in March, 2024, the band will perform 69 Love Songs throughout the year in selected markets throughout the USA and Europe.
New dates have been added, in which composer Stephin Merritt will be joined by members Sam Davol, Shirley Simms, Chris Ewen, and Anthony Kaczynski, with special appearances from Claudia Gonson and John Woo in selected US markets.
Written and recorded entirely by Stephin Merritt, 69 Love Songs garnered universal acclaim at its 1999 release, landing on best of year-end lists in Rolling Stone, The New York Times, SPIN, LA Times and The Washington Post, and received notable praise from Pitchfork, The Guardian, Stereogum and much more.
The Magnetic Fields are the brainchild of 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 to date. 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 Neil Gaiman’s Coraline, for which he won an Obie Award. Merritt composed the score for the Academy Award–nominated film Pieces of April and for the 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’ audio books of A Series of Unfortunate Events and Neil Gaiman’s Coraline.
The Magnetic Fields will perform 69 Love Songs as it was originally performed in the early 2000’s: In full order over 2 nights, with one half of the triple-disc album performed each night. Featuring multiple singers, the band delivers signature orchestral-pop arrangements with cello, ukelele, guitars and keyboards.
Another Longworth-Anderson Series evening of great music, food, and drink! Complimentary pre-concert reception features live local music, light bites from Ollie’s Trolley and N.Y.P.D. Pizza, and craft beer tastings from HighGrain Brewing Co.
The Gilmour Project: Wish You Were Here
Featuring Jeff Pevar, Berry Oakley, Mark Karan, Scott Guberman & Pete Lavezzoli
The Gilmour Project has set January shows for 2025. They previously racked up 58 shows in North America to celebrate the 1973 release of Pink Floyd’s masterwork, ‘The Dark Side of The Moon’ – to immense press / fan acclaim & boffo box office receipts.
The Gilmour Project is
- Jeff Pevar (lead guitar with CSN, David Crosby/CPR, Joe Cocker, Ray Charles, Bette Midler, Phil Lesh & Friends, Ricki Lee Jones, Marc Cohn).
- Berry Oakley (bass & vocals with Allman Betts Band, North Mississippi All-Stars, Blue Floyd & The Doors)
- Mark Karan (guitar & vocals with Bob Weir, RatDog, The Other Ones, Dave Mason).
- Scott Guberman (keyboard & vocals with Phil Lesh & Friends, Keystone Revisited).
- Pete Lavezzoli (drums with Black JGB, Oteil & Friends)
The 5-piece, All-Star ensemble, quickly gained a reputation for flipping the ‘Tribute Band’ script on its head, with exploratory performances of iconic and deep cut Pink Floyd classics, David Gilmour-centric and solo compositions, and pulling other surprise classic rock masterpieces out of their hats. Their version of Kate Bush’s ‘Running Up That Hill’ appeared in their sets, weeks ahead of its ‘Stranger Things’ buoyed resurgence to the top of the charts and worldwide press … making the band appear spookily prescient.
Starting from the heart of Pink Floyd’s musical structure, these superstars allow each other to soar in collaborative improvisation to deeply express the soul of this profound music. These lifelong, stadium musicians add a new, authentic edge to the virtuosic impact of the compositions, better than a mere tribute band. Floyd fanatics throughout North America (the U.S., Canada & Mexico) amazed at the agility of these sincerely dedicated and venerable artists as they dove deeply into a catalogue of hits, deep tracks and astonishing covers conjoined to overwhelming Pink Floyd reverie.
Their original multimedia, ‘Floydian’ spectacle, eschewed poaching Floyd/Gilmour production assets and imagery – relying instead on visuals created by acclaimed (Blondie and Todd Rundgren) LD Hans Shoop and quadraphonic sound design and special audio FX by The Duke of New York (producer of Paul Simon’s ‘Graceland – The Remixes’). Each show was live streamed, modernizing a page from Grateful Dead’s nihilist marketing playbook, and making the performances available for free around the world for those unable to attend due to Covid concerns, or just unable to attend by being on the other side of the planet.
