God’s Favorite Customer reveals a bittersweetness anddirectness in Tillman’s songwriting, without sacrificing any of his wit ortaste for the absurd. From “Mr. Tillman,” where he trains his lens on his ownmisadventure, to the cavernous pain of estrangement in “Please Don’t Die,” Tillman plays with perspective throughout toalternatingly hilarious and devastating effect.  “We’re Only People (AndThere’s Not Much Anyone Can Do About That)” is a meditation on our inner livesand the limitations we experience in our attempts to give and receive love. Itstands in solidarity with the title track, which examines the ironicrelationship between forgiveness and sin. Together, these are songs that demandto know either real love or what comes after, and as the album progresses, thatentreaty leads to discovering the latter’s true stakes.

God's Favorite Customer was produced by Tillman andrecorded with Jonathan Rado (Foxygen), Dave Cerminara (Jonathan Wilson, Fosterthe People, Conor Oberst), and Trevor Spencer (FJM). The album featurescontributions from Haxan Cloak, Natalie Mering of Weyes Blood, longtimecollaborator Jonathan Wilson, and members of Misty’s touring band.
