    Father John Misty will return this summer with God’s Favorite Customer, his follow-up to last year’s Pure Comedy. In the lead up to its release, J. Tillman already confirmed a number of festival appearances and tour dates alongside the likes of The National and Jenny Lewis. Now, he’s announced an expansive headlining outing in support of the album.

    Spanning 70 dates in total, the tour kicks off next week with a solo show for Indiana University Bloomington’s A Kurt Vonnegut Gathering. FJM will then head to Europe for a stretch of shows before returning to North America in time for Mountain Jam. In between 23 headlining dates, he’ll also play US festivals including Louisville’s Forecastle, NYC’s Panorama, San Francisco’s Outside Lands, and an official Newport Folk Fest benefit aftershow. Come late October, he’ll return to Europe for further touring.

    At various stops throughout the trek he’ll be joined by Lewis, TV on the Radio, Bully, Lucy Dacus, King Tuff, Blitzen Trapper, and others. Find his complete itinerary below, and grab tickets here.
