Japanese Breakfast expands tour, doing Philly New Year's run & more

Fresh off playing a great set at Panorama (Cranberries cover included) and DJing a BrooklynVegan afterparty, Japanese Breakfast has expanded her tour behind last year’s great Soft Sounds From Another Planet. The newly-added dates include a three-night New Year’s run in Philly, starting on 12/29 and ending on New Year’s Eve, plus other Northeast dates before and after.

Directly before the New Year’s run, she plays NJ’s Asbury Lanes on December 28, and a few weeks later, she plays NYC’s Brooklyn Steel on January 17, 2019 with well-matched support from Palehound and Hand Habits. Tickets for both of those shows go on sale Friday (8/3) at 10 AM with various presales beforehand. Tickets for the Philly shows go on sale the same time. Updated dates are listed below.
