Father John Misty name-checked Jason Isbell in “Mr. Tillman,” a song off of his recent LP God’s Favorite Customer, one of the very best albums of 2018. “Jason Isbell’s here as well and he seemed a little worried about you,” Josh Tillman sings, referencing a real-life encounter they once had in a hotel lobby. Now, they’re going on tour together.

Father John Misty and Jason Isbell And The 400 Unit have just announced an 18-date co-headlining national tour in June. FJM is touring in support of God’s Favorite Customer, while Isbell and his band are still touring in support of 2017’s The Nashville Sound. UK singer-songwriter Jade Bird will open most of the shows, with Nashville’s Erin Rae serving as support for the final three dates.

The tour will kick off 6/5 in San Diego and go through Berkeley, Seattle, Minneapolis, Chicago, Detroit, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Dallas, and Houston before wrapping up in Tulsa, OK on the 29th. Presale tickets for the shows begin tomorrow at 10AM with the code FJMISBELL, and tickets go on sale to the general public at 10AM on Friday, 2/15. Check out the full itinerary below.

I ran into Father John Misty in a hotel once and it seemed inconsequential at the time but https://t.co/kwTsokV8kB
