Father John Misty

During the live performance at Liverpool Olympia on November 30, 2017, Father John Misty was riding the wave of his transformative album, 'Pure Comedy,' which he released earlier that year. This album showcased his knack for blending introspective lyrics with lush instrumentation, reflecting a deeper dive into existential themes and contemporary society. Fast forward to the tour, 'God's Favorite Customer,' it captures a more stripped-down, vulnerable side of Misty. In fact, he described this period as intensely personal, likely reflecting the struggles he faced during the creation of his music. Interestingly, 'God's Favorite Customer' later became a defining part of his catalog, reinforcing his status as a provocative storyteller in the indie folk scene.
