Japanese Breakfast is an indie led by American musician Michelle Zauner of Little Girl, Big Spoon, Post Post, Little Big League.

Japanese Breakfast albums and top songs

The band released its first studio album Psychopomp (2016) on Yellow K Records, followed by Soft Sounds from Another Planet (2017) and Jubilee (2021), both on Dead Oceans.

Zauner released a tape in June 2013 under the solo moniker Japanese Breakfast. The tape was titled June and boasted thirty tracks written and recorded every day of the month. A stark deviation from Little Big League’s guitar-based indie rock, it showcased Zauner’s dark lyrics, unique vocals and inherent knack for pop melody.

Japanese Breakfast tours

In 2021, Zauner returned, having released three singles to her upcoming album, Jubilee, which came out on June 4, alongside the shows, festivals and tour dates earlier this year.

The singles are Be Sweet, Posing in Bondage, and Savage Good Boy; they were released in this order.

Japanese Breakfast Grammy Award nominations

The good works of the band Japanese Breakfast in 2021 earned Zauner a Grammy nomination with two awards up for grabs including the best new artist.
