Father John Misty unveils new vintage-inspired video for latest single 'Q4'
Father John Misty's fifth studio album is set to drop on April 8.
Father John Misty (real name Josh Tillman) has shared a new video for his latest single 'Q4.'
The video, directed by long-time collaborator Grant James, is a play on old Hollywood title sequences. The slow building track sets the scene for a fictitious film as the credits roll by.
Check out the video below:
'Q4' is the second offering from Tillman's fifth studio album Chloë and the Next 20th Century, dropping April 8.
The first single from the LP, 'Funny Girl' was accompanied by a similarly retro video, wherein a floating jellyfish explores a sepia toned frontier, a la The Wizard of Oz.
Like his previous albums under the Father John Misty moniker, Chloë and the Next 20th Century, was produced by Jonathan Wilson and mixed by Dave Cerminara. A limited-edition deluxe version of the LP will include 7″ bonus single, including a Lana Del Rey cover of the track 'Buddy's Rendezvous'. The album arrives via Sub Pop and Bella Union.
After releasing a few albums under Josh Tillman name, the Maryland native joined indie-outfit Fleet Foxes in 2006. During his tenure, the group released three full-length albums garnering massive fan acclaim.
After splitting from the band in 2012, Tillman released the humorously self-loathing Fear Fun. He furthered his prestige with his 2015 breakthrough record I Love You, Honeybear. The sophomore LP was chock full of love songs from the viewpoint of a reformed cynic.
His last major release was 2018's God's Favorite Customer.

1. Chloë
