Father John Misty has thus far supported the forthcoming album Pure Comedy with a pair of TV appearances. He fantasized about having VR sex with Taylor Swift on Saturday Night Live and went on to deliver one stirring and one odd performance on Germany’s Neo Magazin RoyaleLast night, he returned to US airways to present audiences with a rendition of “Ballad of the Dying Man” on Colbert.

Backed by a six-piece choir, Josh Tillman turned in what could be his best late night performance behind Pure Comedy yet. It was simple and straightforward, with no tongue-in-cheek or in-your-face antics. Tillman tendered the song with unpretentious sincerity, which is really the only way a track with lyrics like “… Once I’m in the box/ Just think of all the overrated hacks running amok/ And all of the pretentious, ignorant voices that will go unchecked” is going to fly. There was a bit of a flub on the final verse, but FJM managed to chuckle it off and continue unscathed. Watch the replay above.

Pure Comedy is due out April 7th via Sub Pop. Update: Father John Misty has also expanded his forthcoming world tour itinerary to support to record. Over the course of the lengthy jaunt, he’ll share the stage with Jenny Lewis, Phosphorescent, Weyes Blood, and more. Check the new schedule below.
