""The Payoff" was written and composed by Josh Tillman himself, who co-produced it with Drew Erickson. With a psychedelic edge reminiscent of ELO and a heavy guitar riff, the track is certainly a ripper with his usual inscrutable lyrics."
""Waiting for the payoff/ Coming due," Tillman sings. "I feel a little stupid/ Doubting you/ 'Cause nobody gets ripped off/ When there's nothing to lose.""
"Father John Misty has also announced a new UK date at London's O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire on Friday, June 12th to make up for his canceled Lido Festival appearance. Tickets will first be available through an artist pre-sale on Wednesday, May 13th at 10:00 a.m. BST."
