Father John Misty - I Love You, Honeybear [Listening Party]

The hosts of the Nialler9 Podcast (Niall Byrne and Andrea Cleary) in conjunction with The Big Romance present the Listen Closely series of listening parties, a night featuring a focus album from an artist we love on the last Wednesday of the month.

Listen Closely is a chance to appreciate a modern classic album on the Big Romance's warm Toby Hatchett soundsystem with a chat about the record on the night, whether you know it and love it, or it's brand new to you. We play the album and provide some background context and chat about it too.

This month:

Father John `Misty - I Love You, Honeybear (2015)

Join Niall and Andrea for a playback of a compelling grandstanding album all about love, romance tempered by the cyncism and internal struggle of a man and songwriter who can't quite put faith in the idea that love might be the answer. Surely, love doesn't conquer all? Featuring songs like 'Chateau Lobby #4 (In C For Two Virgins)', 'Bored In The USA', 'The Night Josh Tillman Came To Our Apt.' and 'The Ideal Husband'.

Listen to the accompanying Nialler9 Episode about the album - just released.

Tickets are limited to 40 for this intimate event.

Doors: 7pm.

Album playback and chat from 7.45pm
