Misty Keasler

Father John Misty has shared a snippet of a forthcoming cover by Lana Del Rey of his as-yet-unreleased song ‘Buddy’s Rendezvous’.

First-ever release of the album recorded at the end of the 60s by studio-based UK progressive rock band Misty. Includes their genre-bending Parlophone single ‘Hot Cinnamon’, now a major collectable after being unearthed and championed by mod club DJs.A dazzling fusion of classically-inspired progressive rock and song-based psychedelic pop, the five-piece Misty looked like being major contenders after being plucked from obscurity by talent agency London Management. The agency’s head, British showbiz scion Michael Grade, became their manager, proclaiming Misty to be “the future of rock music” they released the EMI single ‘Hot Cinnamon’ supported by the band’s own regional TV showcase.

'Pure Comedy', Father John Misty’s third album, is a complex, often-sardonic, and, equally often, touching meditation on the confounding folly of modern humanity. Father John Misty is the brainchild of singer-songwriter Josh Tillman. Tillman has released two widely acclaimed albums – 'Fear Fun' (2012) and 'I Love You, Honeybear' (2015) – and the recent “Real Love Baby” single as Father John Misty, and recently contributed to songs by Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Kid Cudi.
