Father John Misty

In June 2013, Father John Misty delivered an evocative performance of "Hollywood Forever Cemetery Sings" during the Bonnaroo festival. This was just after the release of his critically acclaimed album, "Fear Fun," which hit the shelves in 2012. By this time, he was gaining a reputation for his sharp lyrics and charismatic stage presence, solidifying his place in the indie folk scene. The live recording captures not just the essence of his music but also the palpable energy of Bonnaroo, showcasing his unique blend of humor and introspection. An interesting tidbit? "Fear Fun" was inspired by a personal road trip, hinting at the wanderlust and reflection that permeates his storytelling. This performance strikes a chord, resonating with audiences looking for authenticity amidst the festival's vibrant backdrop.
