Father John Misty debuts “Date Night” video on Adult Swim
In the new video for Father John Misty’s “Date Night”, one of the standout tracks from God’s Favorite Customer, Sub Pop labelmate/visual artist Chad VanGaalen, takes the uptempo rocker and creates a wonderfully absurd and psychedelic visual for the track…
