The remastered edition of Father John Misty's second album will be released on Valentine's Day and will include a cover of ” Heart-Shaped Box » by Nirvana.
Father John Misty will celebrate the 10th anniversary of I Love You, Honeybear with a new edition, which will be released on February 14 by Sub Pop.
The second album by the artist, real name Josh Tillman, evokes his meeting with his wife, the filmmaker-photographer Emma Tillman, and his love for her. The album was very well received and allowed the singer-songwriter to become known to the general public.
The anniversary edition of the album will be released in limited edition « Loser » on pearly red vinyl, while a pressing « Coke Bottle Clear » will be available in Canada. The reissue will be released as a 33 rpm single, while the original was only available as a double. When the album was released in 2015, Sub Pop explained the decision: “ While we all prefer the listening experience on a single vinyl, in this case we decided to prioritize audio quality (which is admittedly very subjective). It was nothing ! »
Alongside the vinyl release, a digital collection I Love You, Honeybear Demos, etc. including Tillman's cover of ” Heart-Shaped Box » by Nirvana is planned. This track was recorded for SiriusXM and Father John Misty performed it on stage in Milwaukee in May 2015; both recordings have appeared on YouTube ever since.
Last fall, Tillman released his sixth album, Mahashmashanawhich contains the titles “ Screamland ”, seven minutes long, and “ She Cleans Up “. Last summer he released a 17-minute compilation called Greatish Hits: I Followed My Dreams and My Dreams Said to Crawl.
Next month, Josh Tillman will embark on a North American tour, kicking off at the Signal in Chattanooga, Tennessee on February 12. He will then travel to Europe, including a concert at La Cigale in Paris on April 8.
