Official video for “Andrew In Drag” from our 2012 album “Love at the Bottom of the Sea” — to our delight, this song seems to be having a TikTok/IG moment. Hello to all of our new listeners!

Do you have tickets yet for our EU/UK shows, or our two shows in Florida? These will be the final shows of our 69 Love Songs Anniversary tour and we’ll no longer be performing the album in full!

Our first night in Toronto (and of tour) was great. So good to get back on the road again and shake off those cobwebs. Tonight, we’re back at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre with part 2 of 69 Love Songs.

Be like Chris, tonight.

For whatever reason @themagfields.bsky.social “Come Back from San Francisco” is one of my favs. Just about moved to tears watching them perform it live.
