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!

She isn’t touring with the band (as she has work and a kid to take care of), but when we play close to home, she comes out for the show.

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.

Happy 25th anniversary to @themagfields.bsky.social's 69 LOVE SONGS! I got to join the @spectrumculture.bsky.social team in writing an essay about each song. It's an even better album than I remembered, and I remembered it being pretty damn good.

@sukiwaterhouse’s excellent taste in guests last night at her show at the Brooklyn Paramount included Amanda Lepore, Del Water Gap, and Stephin.

Thanks, Suki, for the very fun duet on β€œYeah! Oh, Yeah!”

Note: Stephin has no personal social media presence, so don’t be fooled by impersonators - especially those who spell his first name wrong.
