The first Japanese Breakfast release was June (2013), the result of a month-long project in which Zauner and Rachel Gagliardi recorded one song a day and posted them on the Tumblr blog rachelandmichelledojune. History 2013–2016: Early releases and Psychopomp Jubilee was nominated for Best Alternative Music Album and Japanese Breakfast for Best New Artist at the 64th Annual Grammy Awards and became the band's first album to chart on the Billboard 200, where it peaked at 56. Its critical and commercial success led Japanese Breakfast to sign with the record label Dead Oceans, which released the band's second and third studio albums: Soft Sounds from Another Planet (2017) and Jubilee (2021). The songs eventually became Japanese Breakfast's debut studio album: Psychopomp (2016), released by Yellow K Records. She continued to record music and songs, first to cope with stress, then, after her mother died, with grief. In 2014, she returned to her hometown of Eugene, Oregon, to care for her ailing mother. She has said that she named the band after seeing a GIF of Japanese breakfast and deciding that the term would be considered "exotic" to Americans she also thought it would make others wonder what a Japanese breakfast consists of. Zauner started the band as a side project in 2013, when she was leading the Philadelphia-based emo group Little Big League.
Japanese Breakfast is an indie pop band headed by Korean-American musician Michelle Zauner.
