Father John Misty - 'The Full Session' | The Bridge 909 in Studio

Father John Misty performs and is interviewed by Jon Hart in TV Studio A at The Bridge.

It is interesting to see how Tillman warms up to the interviewer throughout. He didn't give him much of a chance in the beginning. You can kind of see the trust/respect being built.

[@KittenBasher69]

I didn't notice that aspect of the interview, thanks I feel pleasantly informed.

[@TanyaAriasBarrera]

I saw that too, FJM was much more open to talk towards the interview progressed. I think Jon is a great interviewer and really takes the time to get to know the artist and music. I love how he closed it off too, such a class act.

[@thejoshuahatcher]

Was thinking the exact same thing. This was a uniquely good music interviewer.

[@laviniana1]

Usually I dont like The Interviewer, but this guy is good. I like him.

[@johnmartinez1899]

"I Went To The Store One Day" is a real gem.

[@katherineellis3733]

Father John Misty is real af.

[@tommydowling9]

+Katie Ellis Hahahaahahahahahhahahhah the most unreal, dog shit, nothingness that has ever existed... only my opinion of course, but i have never heard such a self consuming interview filled with buzzwords of "cool"... A fleet foxes without a drummer is like a lead without a message

[@jenrockxoxo]

I really love Josh Tillman's music and conversation. I had the priviidge of seeing him perform in Pomona, CA recently. Of course Father John Misty was GREAT live, but he made the night extra cool by being wonderful enough to hang out after the show long enough to take photos with a handful of fans (even with dorks like me!). I really appreciated the extra kindness. That, mixed with Father John Misty's aural radness is why I'm now a faithful follower. Much respect. (Thanks again, Josh. :) )

[@lukushart2629]

CampamochaX by definition: if you are into F.J.M you are no dork young brother...

[@jenrockxoxo]

Lukus Hart I am a woman. :) Thanks for the vote of confidence though.

[@lukushart2629]

it did occur to me later that dork is gender non specific, I would probably have an out of body experience if he talked to me...

[@fuzzbat6255]

Lukus Hart dork

[@halfstep44]

+Lukus Hart you were really think long and hard about that comment, huh?

[@samlee2562]

7:20 loooooool! I love how he's so intelligent and intense the interviewer (and probably many people) don't really know how to respond to him but he keeps the conversation light enough with humour

[@JonSebastianF]

00:00 - interview, part 1 07:19 - "Bored in the USA" 11:55 - interview, part 2 22:53 - "I Went to the Store One Day" 26:53 - interview, part 3

[@andrechameau]

At first, you're like fuck another interview that doesn't get it. Then, you're like oh he does and he's pretty adorable too.

[@kestermuller9595]

There's something just a little bit scary about this man's mind, and I suppose that's why he feels so zeitgeisty as an artist. He reflects the terrifying psychological complexity of just being a person and trying to have relationships in our confusing and contradictory era

[@kristensmith7753]

"i didn't put like a cape on, or anything..." hahahahhaha

[@Androidgoth]

Definitely the best father john misty interview

[@MimiOMalley]

Amazing interview. So honest.

[@damageincorporated5537]

I love this man. His music just makes me think so deeply about mortality and overcoming the fear of dying. Despite how fragile we are, we should not let fears motivate what we do in our lives. It is the pursuit of love and growth that should drive us. Living. Reproducing. Exploring.

[@RandomEnchiladas]

Best Father John video on the internet.

[@malcolmz2360]

Great host! Good job.

[@danielenglish3541]

Love the beginning interview!

[@lolp321]

Hahaha "the song holy... uh... stuff"

[@woofwoof1345]

love this guy

[@danieljones674]

This guy reminds me of this band called J. Tillman

[@909thebridge]

Hmmmm. 🧐 They are strangely similar.

[@jessecahill1577]

That one beard hair that's longer than the others and just hanging down is driving me CRAZY

[@stephenwalker850]

“ trust and respect, absolutely, totally, go team America”

[@nitetimerxdio2762]

FJM: *talks* Interviewer: *heavy breathing*

[@MarcoArayaS]

missing J Tillman´s Cancer and Delirium with this.

[@adamkrapper8041]

I want this interviewer as my grandpa.. Please be my grandpa?

[@monsoonmoon7751]

Am I the only one that sees this one random long ass rogue beard hair?! Lol

[@909thebridge]

hahah yeaaaaah.

[@shermski4]

is no one gonna talk about the size of his pupils

[@stephenwalker850]

Cool

[@Daizendagoat]

If you know, if you know. You know?

[@909thebridge]

Well....you know. hahahahaha we know. Jon DEFINITELY knows.

[@falraditya]

I really thought it was the wilding guy from game of thrones

[@Peabody6517]

chasing an archetype...

[@bryanfabiancerros4321]

ya know

[@TheseOpenRoads]

does anyone know the bracelet he is wearing on his right wrist?

[@nitetimerxdio2762]

where can I find his exact scarf?

[@909thebridge]

That's a good question

[@jacquelinevierck1658]

30:10-30:22!!! :''D

[@909thebridge]

haha so funny.

[@Peekabostreet]

Kind of reminds me of tj miller

[@johndennis5182]

is he saying bored in the usa? he got some balls, cause the concempt is very close to Born in the USA. not to say that I don't like it.

[@adamkrapper8041]

kinda the point, I think..

[@brownbenplumm9027]

His IQ must be crazy high

[@jdemocrat]

My specialty is working with highly-capable (gifted/high IQ) children. You are spot on in your assumption. He is most definitely a gifted individual, both intellectually and artistically.

[@nitetimerxdio2762]

Maybe he's just really high

[@HotshotGTar]

Maybe we all are ! I don't see how anybody can make assumptions about this guys IQ from this interview, or from the songs he writes and performs......etc,.....you'd just be trippin' on this guy. Granted; he's cool enough but I think he'd even object to being categorized and 'super-humanized'. Also; equating song writing gifts w/ IQ may be just mistaken. Some of the best songs and music I've ever heard came from some really stupid folks. The genius is in the realization of the gift (a high IQ may actually be a hindrance to good song writing. Nothing screws up song writing quicker than letting a lot of intellect get in the way). I'd say that may be especially true for this guy who seems to be all about the intensity and quality of the emotion. The best songs write themselves (as was suggested by Dylan, Lennon, and others).....you are just grateful that you were there to pick them up out of the creative ethers. It's probably more about imagination and the temporary suspension of intellect than anything else.

[@austinmistretta8373]

He certainly seems to think so too

[@kuro2797]

You may be right to some degree that songwriting may not be the best way of judging someone's IQ. Then again, the best songs you describe and the assumed lower intellect of their composers are your own conjectures. I think that layers of thought and astuteness in picking up your own flaws is something that's not seen in supposedly "less intellectual" art(or speech for that matter). The beauty of that type of art is there in it's purity and how full of life it is. Someone who might be gifted - or burdened - with a higher intellect will naturally form patterns of though which pile up on itself even on the basis of their personality. This will naturally manifest in their speech, their speculations about the world and themselves which would come out in more complex songwriting, which, as simply as it tries to portray it, Tillman's songs are. So isn't that what an IQ test tries to assess in a more fundamental way? In the end though, I've no psychological training so all I'm saying are just spit balled thoughts. Anyhow, thought I'd throw my 2 cents in. Peace.

[@summertimedaze]

the interviewer is breathing heavily

[@halfstep44]

+sumerdaze he was probably afraid that the fist hiding behind fjm's beard would leap out and kill him with a single strike!

[@bobby7572]

I feel a little dumber after listening to this.

[@rocker6219]

PeRsONa

[@rerere175]

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[@909thebridge]

hahaha need some coffee?

[@jonathonhardegree5841]

Just another tortured soul, self involved Jim Morrison/Iron and wine wanna be .....OVERRATED!!!

[@chrilborn4138]

Why cuz he has a beard? Lol Josh Tillman is a WAY better songwriter than Iron and Wine...

[@Beatgeneration2010]

Good singer but terrible to Interview
