Sunday Special: Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs

It's almost that time of year again: Valentine's Day. This year the much contested holiday happens to fall on a Sunday. To celebrate and commiserate this momentous occasion, former Goldsoundz co-host Jennifer and I will be airing a Magnetic Fields themed Sunday Special on February 14th from 7pm to 9pm EST. During the Special, we will be playing as many tracks off of their epic '69 Love Songs' release as we can fit into the 2 hour set.

So tune in on 91.1 FM Atlanta or www.wrek.org this weekend, because we all know that if there is anyone who understands how you feel about Valentine's Day, it's Stephin Merritt.

xoxo,
Maria
