Concert Pick of the Week: Magnetic Fields




The Magnetic Fields w/ Laura Barrett

Lisner Auditorium @ George Washington University
Thursday, Feb. 4
8 p.m.

$35

The Magnetic Fields come to the District on the heels of their latest album release, Realism, out Jan. 26 on Nonesuch Records. Folksy, cheerful rhythms and strummy guitars accompany Stephen Merritt's earnest vocals alongside a chorus of harmonizing bandmates. Recommended if you like Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, The Swell Season, Yo La Tengo, or The Low Anthem.
