Father John Misty officially releases ‘Real Love Baby’
Track arrives over a year on from ‘I Love You, Honeybear’.

Earlier this year, Father John Misty uploaded new song ‘Real Love Baby’ to Soundcloud, and today it’s been given an official release by Sub Pop.
The swooning, post-‘I Love You, Honeybear’ track arrives as Josh Tillman approaches the end of a massive world tour. It’s “not on” a new record, according to FJM, “it’s just a thing.”
Earlier this week, Father John Misty performed just two songs at Philadelphia festival XPN. For the most part, he spoke at length about entertainment’s place in an unravelling world. He subsequently provided context by referring to the “demonic clown pageant coronation of our next potential Idiot King”.
