Father John Misty Announces New US Headlining Dates For September 2025

Father John Misty is announcing new US headlining shows for September 2025 in support of Mahashmashana. The new dates begin Sunday, September 14th in Denver, CO at The Mission Ballroom and end Thursday, October 2nd in Fayetteville, AR at JJ’s Live. Support for these dates will come from Jagjaguwar Records act Cut Worms. Fan presales begin Wednesday, April 9th at 10 am (local; password HONEYBEAR) with tickets on sale to the general public on Friday, April 11th at 10 am (local). 

Father John Misty’s recently announced headlining Summer tour dates with very special guests Lucinda Williams and Hamilton Leithauser on all shows (except where noted below) are on sale now. 

Father John Misty’s sold-out UK/EU Spring 2025 headlining run continues tonight, Tuesday, April 8th in Paris, FR at La Cigale and runs through Tuesday, April 15th in London, UK at Royal Albert Hall. 

Of his recent sold-out Kings and Beacon Theatre shows in New York this past February, Brooklyn Vegan raved, “Tillman is a master showman, working the stage, throwing shapes, and dancing, much to the delight of the crowd.” Meanwhile, the New York Times “The Amplifier” newsletter included his “Beacon Theatre” show in their “Favorite concerts” of the winter, saying Father John Misty is “a sharp satirist who knows exactly when to get unexpectedly sincere.” Finally, USA Today noted this charming assessment of his set from Kings Theatre attendees, “Fans gush over Father John Misty: ‘I never understood why people joined cults then I saw him live.’”

Father John Misty’s I Love You, Honeybear 10th Anniversary Single LP Remastered Edition To Be Released Worldwide From Sub Pop on February 14th, 2025

On February 14th, 2025, Father John Misty’s I Love You, Honeybear, his internationally acclaimed second album, will be available as a single LP for its 10th anniversary along with a digital-only companion release of demos that were initially released on cassette in 2015.  The digital companion piece (“I Love You, Honeybear Demos, etc.” ) also includes a solo acoustic performance of Nirvana’s ”Heart Shaped Box” recorded for SiriusXM during the …Honeybear cycle.  While his excellent debut, Fear Fun, would “introduce” the world to the singer and songwriter, it was the love and brutal honesty showcased in I Love You, Honeybear that would elevate Father John Misty’s career. The album became his most successful release to date.
 
Tillman wrote the following for the album’s release: I Love You, Honeybear is a concept album about a guy named Josh Tillman who spends quite a bit of time banging his head against walls, cultivating weak ties with strangers, and generally avoiding intimacy at all costs. This all serves to fuel a version of himself that his self-loathing narcissism can deal with. We see him engaging in all manner of regrettable behavior…
 
“My ambition, aside from making an indulgent, soulful, and epic sound worthy of the subject matter, was to address the sensuality of fear, the terrifying force of love, the unutterable pleasures of true intimacy, and the destruction of emotional and intellectual prisons in my own voice. Blammo” (Read full bio here).
 
Father John Misty’s I Love You, Honeybear debuted at number 17 on the Billboard 200 albums chartIt appeared on over 70 year-end lists for 2015, with “Album of the Year” honors from the likes of PASTETime Out New YorkUnder The RadarGQ (UK), and Drowned in Sound with additional Top 20 placements from the likes of BillboardPitchforkStereogumExclaim, BBCThe Guardian, Entertainment Weekly, and Rolling Stone. The album would also earn “Best of the Decade” notices from the likes of PitchforkPASTENMEAquarium Drunkard, and Consequence of Sound. Last week, I Love You, Honeybear made Rolling Stone’s  The 250 Greatest Albums of the 21st Century list.
 
The success of Father John Misty’s I Love You, Honeybear led to incredible late-night performances of album tracks “Bored in the USA” on The Late Show with David Letterman“True Affection” on Late Night with Seth Meyers, “Chateau Lobby (#4 For Two Virgins)” on Later…with Jools Holland, “I Love You, Honeybear” on Conan, “The Ideal Husband” on Jimmy Kimmel Live’s outdoor stage, and “Holy Shit” on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Father John Misty also earned a 2016 Brit Award nomination for “Best International Male Solo Artist” alongside Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and The Weeknd. 
 
I Love You, Honeybear single LP edition is available to preorder worldwide from Sub Pop. LP preorders from Sub Pop Mega Mart in North America, Mega Mart 2 in the UK and EU, Father John Misty’s Official Website, and select independent retailers worldwide will receive the limited Loser edition on Pearlescent Red vinyl. There is also a Coke Bottle Clear vinyl available in Canada (all vinyl colors available while stock lasts!). As for the aforementioned I Love You, Honeybear demos, those will also be available on all DSPs on February 14th.
 
Also in February, Father John Misty will begin his international headline touring in support of Mahashmashana, his acclaimed new album from 2024, which begins February 12th in Chattanooga, TN at The Signal and runs through Wednesday, April 16th in London, UK at eartH Theatre (Rough Trade Outstore).

What People Are Saying About Father John Misty’s Mahashmashana:
“Josh Tillman is at his spiritual peak: The mood swings are wilder, the logic more tangential, and the songwriting might be the best it’s ever been.”  
8.3/10 / “Best New Music,” Pitchfork
 
“Another great, mind-bending, soul-baring, melodically rich album.”
“Album of the Month” ★★★★ MOJO
 
“Enthralling… he’s a fantastic writer in both terms of melody – all nine tracks bear a tune that’s both beautiful and beautifully constructed – and the scope of his musical ambitions.”
 Album of the Week - ★★★★ The Guardian
 
“Striking a compelling balance between the epic and the intimate.”
★★★★½ DIY
 
Mahashmashana is assured, emotive and luminous; Tillman (AKA Father John Misty’s) distinctive phrasing is magnificent and his melodies are gorgeous and this soul-baring record is set to be a firm favourite for both new fans and the existing congregation
that worship at the altar of Father John Misty.”
9/10, CLASH
 
“Another set of brilliant, beautiful songs… Tillman is an outstanding vocalist, a
master of phrasing and inflection.” 
8/10, Uncut
 
In terms of the nuts and bolts of songwriting—chord
progressions with a dramatic arc, melodies that get stuck in your head—he’s
never been better. Mr. Tillman has matured and mellowed, but he
remains a misanthrope full of surprises.”
Wall Street Journal
 
“On Mahashmashana, Misty wrestles with a reality that is confounding, off-kilter, even crazy, knowing it won’t end well. Root for him.”
Associated Press
 
“Josh Tillman’s sixth record might be the healthiest and most wisecrack-laden
thesis on the circle of life in recent memory.”
8.4/10, PASTE
 
“Wonderful… The melodies are gorgeous and the lyrics come with that special
umami of being precise yet elusive.”
★★★★ The Independent
 
 “This is Father John Misty at his finest fuelled by uncompromised greatness.”
9/10, Far Out
 
“Ambitious and rich with emotion… the good Father can’t help but
share words of wisdom.”
★★★★ NME
 
“Father John Misty sweeps us off our feet with an album of dizzying
depth and magical magnificence.”
★★★★★ NARC
 
“Josh Tillman addresses mortality with wickedly expansive style on his sixth album. Flushed with wit and luminous melodies, his songcraft remains an inexhaustible pleasure.” ★★★★ Record Collector
 
“ These 50 minutes of music are simultaneously momentous and sublime…”
 ★★★★ Shindig
 
“Josh Tillman  blends complexity and beauty into a cohesive, thought-provoking album.” 8.8/10, Northern Transmissions
 
“It’s an album filled with lush orchestrations, sly references to mortality and rebirth (to fit in with the album’s title) and songs that are unafraid to go on for, in some instances, over eight minutes. And, as ever with Tillman, it’s utterly compelling to listen to.”
★★★★½ MusicOMH
 
Mahashmashana is unequivocally stunning.” 
★★★★★ The Arts Desk

“Father John Misty’s sixth album eulogises humankind in Josh Tillman’s idiosyncratic, endlessly intriguing way… These 50 minutes of music are simultaneously momentous and sublime… There’s plenty of lushly arranged emotional climaxes; it’s not rare for the songs to reach a sweeping peak that is as towering, dense, overwhelming and ultimately moving as life.” ★★★★ Shindig

Father John Misty Shares “She Cleans Up” Official Video From Mahashmashana

Today, Father John Misty is releasing “She Cleans Up,” a new, official video from Mahashmashana, his forthcoming album. The video was co-directed by Father John Misty band member Chris Dixie Darley and filmmaker Aaron Caleb Eisenberg.
 
PASTE included the song in its “Best New Songs of the Week” column and said, “Feeling a little bit like a FJM-ified marriage between Bob Dylan’s “Subterranean Homesick Blues” and Viagra Boys’ “Punk Rock Loser,” or maybe just like Spoon at their funkiest, “She Cleans Up” is an amalgamation of rock homages and head-banging bass parts…a thoroughly weird and thoroughly enjoyable track that just begs to be blasted while speeding down a highway in some sick-ass shades.” FLOOD offers this, “A blues-leaning, scuzzy rock jam that sounds way more like Jack White than I think I’d ever expect from FJM. I feel like Father John Misty would make fun of me for coming to that conclusion.” Rolling Stone called it “a stomping glam-and-grit rocker driven by a chunky bass line, splashy baselines, and guitar riffs designed to be blown to rattle the casings of your speakers.” UPROXX notes it’s “A swaggering rocker…” concurring with NME, who goes further, “His distorted vocals are backed by an infectious electric guitar part and swaggering upbeat drums…”
 
Father John Misty’s previously announced headlining tour dates for 2025 in support of Mahashmashana, including his North America run with special guests Destroyer and UK dates with support from Butch Bastard, are on sale now.
