On Tuesday August 21, 2012, at 3:30 pm ET, I spoke with Josh Tillman, who’d left a popular band called Fleet Foxes to venture out on his own. He called himself Father John Misty and earlier that spring, Sub Pop had released his acclaimed debut album, Fear Fun. Josh and I had a talk about its meta- and philosophical themes, why he name dropped people like Neil Young and Jean-Paul Sartre, the novel he’d written, why he left Fleet Foxes, his interest in comedy, what his favourite Bob Dylan song was and under appreciated and over discussed aspects of Dylan’s work, future plans, and more.
