The Magnetic Fields Sign to Nonesuch

In 2002, the Magnetic Fields signed a two album deal with Nonesuch Records, a subsidiary of Warner Brothers. Nonesuch's excellent and diverse artist roster includes Laurie Anderson, Caetano Veloso, Emmylou Harris, John Adams and Wilco. Stephin Merritt is currently at work recording the new Magnetic Fields album, which should be available in September, 2003. This album will feature Merritt singing all the songs, with instruments played by himself and bandmates John Woo, Sam Davol, and Claudia Gonson.
