Father John Misty Stuns with “Holy Shit” on ‘Colbert’

Josh Tillman is known for his surging passion on-stage and no segment showcased that better than his recent appearance on Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Performing his tune “Holy Shit” (appropriately titled) from the stellar I Love You, Honeybear, Tillman and his band turned the song into a swell of guitars and drums reminiscent of Wilco’s “Misunderstood” after Tillman started the tune solo for a stunning performance.

Father John Misty’s appearance comes shortly after the band announced a slew of spring and summer tour dates that include multiple festival appearances as well as local gigs. The run kicks off March 30 in Santa Ana, CA.
