Joshua Tillman, former drummer for Fleet Foxes, brings his latest incarnation Father John Misty to Perth. Along with his trademark swaggering dance moves, on-stage banter and a full band, Tillman drenches you with his blend of acidic humour and West Coast Americana folk-and-country rock.
Father John Misty are, excuse the cliché, a visual feast….He makes the performance as important as the music. Long story short, he has a fucking good time. And so do we. WWW.THEMUSIC.COM.AU

Whipping up a hoedown one minute with chain-gang chants, blues guitar, honky-tonk piano and steam-train rhythms and blowing hats off the next with stories of a well-travelled life and the people who’ve shared the road, Ruby Boots always make sure you have a rollicking, foot-stomping time.
Tight folk-infused country music that sounds at once traditional and excitingly fresh. Another WA success story. BLUNT MAGAZINE
