Father John Misty shares new video

Father John Misty Total Entertainment Forever Video

Father John Misty has delivered a hilariously absurd new video for “Total Entertainment Forever,” from his latest album ‘Pure Comedy’.

In “Total Entertainment Forever” we find George Washington donning a virtual reality helmet and experiencing a simulation wherein Kurt Cobain gets crucified by corporate fascists. The video stars Father John Misty along with Thomas Bayne, Macaulay Culkin, Jack Dishel, Spencer Fox, David Garland, Toby Goodshank, Adam Green, Mical Klip, Tei Shi, and Dan Shure.

“Total Entertainment Forever” was directed by Four Gods and a Baby (Adam Green, Thomas Bayne, Toby Goodshank, Macaulay Culkin), edited Jordan Galland, and features cinematography by Ryan Foregger and costume design by Cara Alpert and Jessie Abraham.

Father John Misty has also added UK dates to his 2017 international headlining tour this fall in support of Pure Comedy. The new dates include November 1st in Edinburgh at Usher Hall November 2nd in Glasgow at O2 Academy, November 5th in Manchester at O2 Apolloand November 7th in London at Hammersmith Eventim Apollo.
