Father John Misty looks to be wrapping up an eventful few days of shows and tense interviews with a brand new track.
Unlike his other 'new tracks' in recent months, such as a jingle for the Toyota Prius and some lyrics for the House Of Cards theme (plus those bizarre Taylor Swift covers), this one actually seems to be at least semi-serious, in the sense that it might end up on a new release instead of being an elaborate ruse or jape.
This 'real' offering follows 2015's I Love You, Honeybear. It's been plonked onto Soundcloud with a succinct caption: “why not.”
Check out "Real Love Baby" below.
