Father John Misty

On October 22, 2013, Father John Misty performed 'Nancy From Now On' live at Union Transfer in Philadelphia, a pivotal time in his career. This performance coincided with the release of his second studio album, 'Fear Fun,' which had just come out earlier that year, in May. This album marked a significant shift for Joshua Tillman, formerly of Fleet Foxes, as he fully embraced his alter ego, Father John Misty. The blend of introspective lyrics and lush arrangements reflected his unique storytelling style. Interestingly, 'Fear Fun' was critically acclaimed, establishing him as a notable artist in the indie-folk scene. In this live performance, you can really feel the rawness of the moment, as he captures both the humor and melancholy embedded in his songs, offering a glimpse into the transformative period he was experiencing.
