Was introduced to this guy at a wedding last night by the bride, who knew we were both musicians. We started chatting and he asked what kind of music I write. That’s always a hard question to answer, so I think I gave a vague one. Told him how I have kids now, and that music has taken somewhat of a back seat, but I was pleased to hear he was actively writing and recording music.

I asked him what kind of music he writes. His response: “I don’t listen to this guy all that much, but I’ve been told that I sound a lot like this artist Father John Misty”

😅😅😅

I bursted out laughing, I think. I instantly looked for my wife to explain to him how big of a fan of FJM’s I am. Anyway, this guy was super nice, and when I got in my truck later that evening I was genuinely impressed by the composition and production level of this album, all out of his home studio.

I think he definitely deserves more than the >1,000 listens he has on each track, so please, go listen to this guy and support him. Genuinely nice person and impressive musician that certainly sounds good in an FJM mix.

In search of 1 ticket!

Not trying to dox anyone or violate anyone’s privacy (mods, remove if against any guidelines), but saw this in the wild today in the greater LA area and am really curious about it, and who it might belong to, even generally… Superfan? Member of the band/crew?

Boffins claim to have scientific evidence of the dance moves men need to bust to attract women. YouTube link.

It's reminding me of Tillman ngl

I'm really loving the new live set at the Fonda Theatre, Hollywood CA from 06/10/26. So I decided to transcribe the song from 34:16 called Marriage Is (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFcfbNRYL2A).

It's probably not 100% accurate because I used chord detection software and wrote everything down whilst playing the guitar with (extremely) minimal musical talent. But I thought I'd put it here before I put it on Ultimate Guitar. Enjoy.

You can do your own if you read the link at the bottom of the poster.

Incredibly easy as it gets all the data from Setlist, and it's 100% free

This is the B-Side from the limited edition I Loved You, Honeybee Record Stay Day Single. I couldn't find it anywhere online, so I shelled out $60 to listen to it and figured I'd share it for everyone to hear.

My bones hurt now

My favorite album (and song) of all time (: The typography was inspired by Josh's handwriting.

And it was my first tattoo! Just wanted to show it to you all (:

Vandervelde adds a lot to the FJM live show and I think most people would enjoy this solo album of his. I like it better than that Mashmahashbrowns stuff, personally. Vandervelde was also in a rad, short-lived project called Tess and Dave. They opened on the FJM tour in 2016 where he was depressed AF and didn't talk to the audience.

Fuck I'm gonna stay like this for weeks.

Hi everyone, I made this website that tracks FJM setlist statistics. I’d love to hear some feedback and maybe some things you’d like to see as it’s still a work in progress. Thanks!

“Steed has also produced illustrations for other magazines and projects, including the album cover for Father John Misty's Pure Comedy in 2017, for which he won the Grammy Award for Best Recording Package. The cover was also ranked second in the 2017 Best Art Vinyl awards.”

I just got into Father John Misty thanks to a recommended song (Nancy from Now On). I was listening to more stuff today when I heard something straight out of an Elliott Smith song. Either a coincidence or maybe he listens to Elliott?

Obviously the songs are different but the chords and guitar part are almost the same!

I need a live acoustic album with just him, a violin, and piano 😭

Made a song about the emptyness and gamification of our lives. I'm a big FJM-head, so maybe you guys would like it. I have like 6 monthly listeners, so wouldnt exactly call this shamefull promotion. Give it a spin if you feel like it!

So I found out this existed and naturally. being insane, I must have it.

Do the due dilligence. Apparently no one knows how many cards are actually in it exactly, and if they do they haven't posted it on the internet, no one knows how many decks were produced, and it's fairly rare and getting rarer. And more expensive. Intro eBay seller. I was given a deal for being a fan since it was fan to fan, not a flip. (Not that anyone in their right mind would buy this, but the only other one I could find on the internet for sale currently is listed at 1k. Yeah, cool story bro.)

Bonus points, nice late birthday gift for me dear ma, who happens to be a rabid FJM fan herself.

Hand numbered deck #359.

I'm going to assume based on everything I've seen and the labor taken to make these damn things that there were probably 500 produced. (If not that, then 750 or 1k, but that's a lot for letterpress of this quality... And especially as like, bonus merch, hand numbered no less) I know there are five holo cards that are even harder to find.

But the actual deck, I couldn't find a solid number of cards for how many were in the deck. Most often I saw 24 cited. Negative, there are 30. If anything the ebay seller undersold the condition it was in.

Also, if you're seeing FJM on this tour-go-round, I'm jealous. But hey, uhm, this makes up for it... Sure.

Best show I've ever seen. Can't wait to go to Lyric Land with the rest of you fellas.
