For more than 30 years, TheMagFields have adeptly delved into the murky universe of love, commitment and the prickly nature of relationships.
“I actually think San Francisco is probably where we are the most popular in the United States,” said Magnetic Fields singer-songwriter Stephin Merritt . “You guys just seem to get us for some reason.”
“It was that kind of combination of not having the environment to write and also not feeling inspired by what I was witnessing,” said Merritt. Although he won’t divulge many details about upcoming projects, Merritt said he has slowly returned to songwriting for a potential follow-up album to 2020’s “Quickies,” a collection of songs that all clocked in at less than 2 ½ minutes .
He has also never shied away from channeling grief into this songwriting and the recent deaths of Anyway and Beghtol —along with the countless casualties from COVID and the war in Ukraine — offer him ample opportunity to explore those avenues. However, those kinds of weighty topics do not lend themselves to be crafted quickly, even for someone with the capabilities and prowess of Merritt.
