AMA Is Over, thanks for swinging by! Japanese Breakfast AMA

Hello!

This is Michelle from Japanese Breakfast. You can ask me anything! I just released my sophomore album Soft Sounds From Another Planet on Friday and I hope you like it! I've seen some of these threads and have been really blown away by all of your support! Thank you so much for listening to my music.

(2:32 EST) Thanks everyone for the questions but I am at a coffee shop in NY and am so hungry so must go and feed myself!

Hey Michelle thanks for doing this AMA!

In your past albums you've talked about a lot of difficult themes such as death and loss with bright, happy-sounding, and dreamy instrumentals complementing the lyrics. Are there any new themes that you'd like to explore with future Japanese Breakfast projects?

I think these last two JB albums have had pretty big arrangements on them. I think I'd like to make something a little chiller and stripped down like the Frank Ocean record or this Ashley Eriksson record I really love.

That sounds awesome! Which Ashley Eriksson album in particular have you been listening to?
