Having departed Fleet Foxes in 2011 after 3 years on the drum stool, Joshua Tillman celebrates the release of his debut album "Fear Fun" under the new moniker of FATHER JOHN MISTY with Splendour sideshows in Sydney and Melbourne.

FATHER JOHN MISTY

The music maintains a gloomy, secretive and yet conversely playful quality. Lyrically, his absurdist fever dreams of pain and pleasureelicit, in equal measures, the blunt descriptive power of Bukowski or Brautigan, the hedonist-philosophy of Oscar Wilde and the dried-out wit of Loudon Wainwright III. Come experience the soulful musings of FATHER JOHN MISTY at these intimate performances.
