Father John Misty Announces Summer 2018 Tour Dates

Following the massive success of 2017’s Grammy-winning (albeit for packaging) Pure Comedy, Father John Misty made sure to hit eager fans with a one-two punch of an announcement for a new record dubbed God’s Favorite Customer (oh, Mr. Tillman, please never change), and now an extensive world tour supporting the upcoming album.

With no less than 70 gigs lined up between May and November of this year, Father John Misty will be having quite the busy 2018.

Of his expansive tour of the United States, FJM has also been announced to perform at a variety of festivals including the just announced Newport Folk (July 28th) and Austin City Limits Festivals (October 5th-7th and October 12th-14th).

And sandwiching his June through October North American trek, Tillman will be performing all across Europe as well, including Ireland, the United Kingdom, Spain, France, Poland, Denmark, Portugal, Netherlands, Norway, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Hungary, Austria and Switzerland (I will refrain from listing all the US cities in an effort to save time).

Accompanying Tillman on this absolutely tremendous tour on select dates, include artists such as Blitzen Trapper, Gillian Welch, TV on the Radio, Bully, Jenny Lewis of Rilo Kiley fame, Lucy Dacus, David Beeman, King Tuff and Bedouine.

Christopher Lee: I am a college student from California. I am a massive fan of most things rock, and especially of all things Car Seat Headrest. Journalism has been a great passion of mine, and I hope that I'll be able to continue to merge my worlds of music and journalism as the years go on.
