Background[]

Chloë and the Next 20th Century is Father John Misty's fifth studio album and his first full-length project since the release of God's Favorite Customer in 2018. The album was written and recorded between August and December 2020. It was co-produced by Tillman and his longtime collaborator Jonathan Wilson. The two first recorded "basic tracks" at Wilson's Five Star Studios. Strings, brass, and woodwinds were recorded in a session at United Recordings which featured numerous musicians, including trumpeter Wayne Bergeron and saxophonist Dan Higgins. The album was engineered and mixed by Dave Cerminara and features arrangements by Drew Erickson.[1]

Release[]

In December 2021, a spoken-word vinyl was mailed to fans by Bella Union. It announced Father John Misty's fifth studio album, Chloë and the Next 20th Century, scheduled for release on April 8, 2022, by Sub Pop and Bella Union. It will feature eleven new tracks produced by Tillman and Jonathan Wilson.[2] The album and its track listing were officially revealed on January 5, 2022. The album's lead single "Funny Girl" was released the same day, accompanied by a music video by Nicholas Ashe Bateman. The album is scheduled to be released worldwide through Sub Pop and in Europe through Bella Union on April 8, 2022. It will be released on vinyl, CD, cassette, and digitally. A limited deluxe edition box set of the album will be released in the form of a hardcover book, which features both clear red LPs, a poster, and two bonus 7" singles: a cover by Lana Del Rey of the album track "Buddy's Rendezvous" and a cover by Jack Cruz of "Kiss Me (I Loved You)".[3] A second single, "Q4", was released on February 9, 2022.[4] "Goodbye Mr. Blue" was released as the album's third single on March 9, 2022.[5] "Kiss Me (I Loved You)" is scheduled to be the final single to precede the album's release.[1]

Father John Misty will promote the album with two symphony concerts, one at Los Angeles' Walt Disney Concert Hall on February 25, 2022, with the Los Angeles Philharmonic; and the other at London's Barbican Centre on April 7, 2022, with Britten Sinfonia conducted by Jules Buckley.[6]
