The Edge

This week we have heard nothing but great things about the new Father John Misty album, “I Love You, Honeybear.”  According the artist, the album is a concept album about a man named, Josh Tillman (who happens to be Father John Musty…) and his life before and after meeting a girl named Emma.  The album plays into different parts of their path together, but we promise to not spoil the endings for you!

The album was recorded all throughout 2013 and finished in 2014 in Los Angeles. There is a strong soulful component to the album that gives it a stronger emotional vibe than Father John Misty’s previous albums.  It also pulls in many different vibes from other artists to add some new flavor to the album.  Each track has some special part to it that sets it apart such as a ragtime jazz, or strings.  These bits show the wide variety and the enthusiasm they had to create this album.

Another bonus about this solid album, is the time and creativity that went into making their album artwork.  So even if you aren’t a fan, you may want to just seek out the popup artwork!

Sub Pop Records did everyone a favor by posting the complete album as a video so you don’t have to keep searching for long.  It can be found => here.

As far as his tour?  Well the Chicago April 3rd date and the Minneapolis April 4th date are both sold out.. so you may have to do some digging to score tickets or drive further…
