Father John Misty is going on doing press for his upcoming album “Pure Comedy”. The album’s due out April 7th. After an in-depth interview with Beat 1’s Zane Lowe, Josh Tillman stopped by Lauren Laverne’s BBC Radio 6 show to perform a new 13-minute track, “Leaving LA”. After his performance, Tillman joked, “that’s the whitest, most acoustic thing you’ve ever seen.”
“It’s about as fundamental of a change as I think I could reasonable pull off at this stage in my career. But I definitely worked harder writing this one. There’s one song in particular that I’ve been writing for three years. If it’s not my masterpiece, then I’m fucked.”
