Father John Misty is a musician currently living in Northern California. His wonderful new record, Mahashmashana, is out today on Sub Pop. We chat about TJ landing in NY and heading straight to Tory Burch for a cosmo, heated floors, failed selfies, a quick rundown of the Coachella lineup, lego biopics, M. Night Shyamalan's Topanga Canyon, disingenuous slacker-rock, radio programmers wish his lyrics were easier to understand, trying to impress Neil Young at Rick Rubin's house, why he bought a hearse, funky drum breaks, more J*lly Roll, the time he won a grammy, Gelson's Market, banging a gong in the desert on mushrooms, and the best sync talk we've ever had.
