ABOUT THIS ITEM

The Magnetic Fields release ‘Andrew In Drag’, the first single from their forthcoming album ‘Love At The Bottom Of The Sea’.

The band’s tenth full length album is their first release of new material for Domino, who have previously reissued some of the band’s classic period albums and Stephin Merritt’s recent ‘Obscurities’ collection.

‘Andrew in Drag’ is a poignant, irresistibly catchy pop song which demonstrates all the variants of gender and sexuality - a man falls in love with a woman who is embodied by a man. Our protagonist is straight, as is the other guy, so it is a fleeting glimpse of true love that can never be. “A celebration of impossible love. Not at all autobiographical in any way” says Stephin Merritt.
