From The Desk Of Britta Phillips: “Horace & Pete”

You know Britta Phillips from the bands Luna and Dean & Britta, but now she has a debut solo album, Luck Or Magic. The record features five Phillips originals alongside covers of songs by the Cars, Evie Sands, Fleetwood Mac, Dennis Wilson and ABBA’s Agnatha Fältskog. Phillips will be guest editing magnetmagazine.com all week.

Phillips: I love Louie. I mean really, really, really love Louie. And I love this web series. A few friends of mine don’t like it, because it’s slow, a bit rough around the edges or it looks bad. OK, it looks like a video-taped play … So what!? So does I, Claudius! It feels like life to me, even when its not at all like my life or “real” life (which is so fake anyway). There is a real live mind and personality spinning out behind it, and that is sublime. No one higher up making decisions that deliver polished, addictive TV crack—not that I have a problem with TV crack; it definitely has a place in my life. Oh … and Alan Alda … Alan Alda! He kills in it!
