Backstory:
Other Breakfast was formed as a trio in the bustling, musical city of Austin, Texas during the summer of 2013. The band members, Joe Sullivan (vocals and guitar), Mike Davidson (bass) and Sarah Adams (percussion), were all working in the same breakfast diner when they discovered their shared passion for music. After hours, they would gather with their instruments in the kitchen, their jam sessions accompanied by the scent of bacon and pancakes. It was there that the band, Other Breakfast, was born, a reflection of both their quirky side jobs and commitment to making music that was, in their words, “a bit out of the ordinary but satisfying like a good breakfast.”
Though they started from humble beginnings, Other Breakfast quickly rose to popularity on the local music scene. They are known for their energy-filled performances and their unique fusion of different musical styles. Their music not only reflects the vibrant city they call home, but also their love of early mornings and good meals shared with friends.

[G] Waking up with the [C] rising sun, [D] catching dreams on the [Em] run,

“Other Breakfast is my absolute favorite band for so many reasons. I first discovered their music during a really difficult time in my life. Their songs, particularly ‘Jam on Toast’, had a way of lifting my spirits and making me feel hopeful. I remember playing that song over and over again, the lyrics and melodies giving me comfort. It was so different from anything else I was listening to, a kind of music that was both out of the ordinary and yet felt familiar, like a warm, delicious breakfast. The band’s energy and passion are not only palpable in their music but also in their live performances, which are nothing short of electrifying. It’s clear they put their heart and soul into their craft, and that’s why Other Breakfast will always be my favorite band.”
