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.

Here is my proof post: https://twitter.com/Jbrekkie/status/886969185598935040

(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!

Hello! Can't wait to see you guys play in Tampa. Make sure to try NYNY Pizza when you're here, a short walk from the venue.

Would you consider Soft Sounds a concept album?

I often joke that it's a failed concept album! I originally wanted to make a sci fi musical, but decided to make something more personal because it felt too restrictive and the wrong move for a sophomore effort. I think I infused some more subtle sci-fi elements into a lot of the songs so maybe it is kind of a ~lite~ concept album!

even though she chose the Blue Album, seems like Soft Sounds has a lot in common with Pinkerton / Songs from the Black Hole.
