Father John Misty

In March 2018, Father John Misty graced the stage at the Gasparilla Music Festival in Tampa, Florida, with a performance of 'Holy Shit' that captured the essence of his evolving artistry. This live recording came just after the release of his critically acclaimed album, 'Pure Comedy,' which had dropped the previous year in April 2017. 'Pure Comedy' delves into existential themes wrapped in lush instrumentation, mirroring the reflective tone found in his live set. Interestingly, during this time, Misty was known for his theatrical stage presence, blending humor with poignant commentary on modern life. His willingness to explore deep, sometimes dark subjects while maintaining a unique charisma really shines through in this performance.
