Background
editIn June 2021, Japanese Breakfast released their third full-length album. Two months prior, the band announced North American tour dates in support of the new album.[1][2][3] In June 2021, the band announced new tour dates and additional dates in certain cities.[4] In 2022, the band announced more North American tour dates, with The Linda Lindas opening, as well as dates with Yo La Tengo[5] and dates in Asia, Europe and South America.[6] The band originally had announced European tour dates for early 2022, but postponed them due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. The shows were performed in October 2022.[7] In 2023, the band played a mix of headlining and festival dates across North America and Europe.[8]
Critical reception
editThe tour received positive reviews. In The Harvard Crimson, Samantha Chung wrote, "Zauner was completely at home on the stage, bringing her charisma and passion to the large venue. She loves to perform, and she wanted the audience to know it."[9] In The Guardian, Kitty Empire wrote, "With all this glamour flying around, it's comforting to see that she remains so committed to her first calling. Tonight’s set is expansive, and balances heartrending songs such as In Heaven with the slow-build of Posing for Cars, a highlight of the encore that begins with Zauner performing solo, with the rest of the band filtering in to lift the track to a crescendo."[10] Joshua Mellin wrote in NME, "Watching it all unfold feels like being saddled behind the wheel of a magic school bus, staring through the windshield at a morphing visual spiralling through universes, and revving up to launch into the unknown. It's just a shame every venue doesn’t come with it's [sic] own trans-dimensional vehicle."[11]
