Psychopomp

Michelle Zauner is the guitarist and singer for the underrated Philadelphia indie rock band Little Big League. After her mother was diagnosed with cancer, she returned home to Oregon; while she was there, she revamped songs from her previous lo-fi releases under the name Japanese Breakfast.

Solo project by acclaimed guitarist-singer is a collection of bespoke, frank indie pop that happens to be one of the more enjoyable debuts of 2016.

Released under the name Japanese Breakfast, the recordings showed a lot of promise, all of which is realized in full on her first widely released album, Psychopomp.
