The singer-songwriter – real name Joshua Tillman – performed the track for the first time during a show at the Bryce Jordan Center, University Park in Pennsylvania last week (September 4).

Per Setlist.FM, the musician has since played ‘She Cleans Up’ at gigs in Boston (September 7) and Newark (9).

Fan-captured footage of the live rendition of the song has since been shared online – tune in here:

Meanwhile, Father John Misty has been teasing a new track for next Tuesday (September 17) by sharing a nine-second snippet on YouTube (see the video below).

In July, he released a reflective standalone single titled ‘I Guess Time Just Makes Fools Of Us All’ while announcing his recent ‘Greatish Hits’ album.

The compilation is a career-spanning set of songs taken from FJM’s five studio records to date: ‘Fear Fun’ (2012), ‘I Love You, Honeybear’ (2015), ‘Pure Comedy’ (2017), ‘God’s Favorite Customer’ (2018), and ‘Chloë and The Next 20th Century’ (2022).

‘I Guess Time…’ closes the collection, but this track will also feature on a new album from Tillman coming “later this year”, according to a press release.

Additionally, the artist is due to host a series of “listening events” in the US this month and next. Find all the details here.

Back in June, Tillman teased two new songs with short clips posted on social media – one of which fans speculated was called ‘Josh Tillman And The Accidental Dose’.

Father John Misty’s latest album, ‘Chloë and the Next 20th Century’, was released in 2022. In a glowing five-star review, NME said that the project “showcases what Tillman’s imagination can do when it is set free to explore new and unpredictable sonic paths”.

It continued: “‘Olvidado (Otro Momento)’, a shimmying bossa nova track that sees him sing in Spanish, never settles entirely, expanding its woozy ambience into a thick beat made up of quietly vast percussive flourishes. It’s a perfect example of how nothing on this album ends up quite where you’d expect it – including the ever-evolving artist who made it.”
