The bedroom project of Matt Whiteford, along with various members and collaborators, has taken the hearts of listeners, making waves out of the DIY music scene and onto the stage with acts like Alison's Halo, Clarion, Slow Crush, and Blackwater Holylight, among others. Early singles and EPs (2020-2021) showcase raw and real bedroom recordings with DIY cassette tapes, CDs, and T-shirts being shipped across the globe. Their debut LP, Join the Circus (2023), was created by collaborating with former band members and mix engineer Jeff Zeigler. Standout tracks like “Hollywood Daydream,” “Drifting,” and “Up” helped solidify the band within their niche. In 2025 the LP, Slow Motion was released to critical acclaim with standout tracks like “Numb the Pain,” “Glue,” “Solitaire,” “Seeing Stars,” and “Mesmerized” gaining the attention of Spotify and Apple Music editorial teams, as well as notable publications The colour wheel EP (2026) is a collection of songs created by Cigarettes for Breakfast's founder Matt Whiteford, over the course of 3 years. Pulling inspiration from the greats like My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, and Ringo Deathstarr, colour wheel washes over you with pulsing, soaring guitars that bend and swirl into oblivion. The colour wheel EP was released on vinyl, CD and cassette and all streaming platforms on March 24th, 2026, via Abandon Everything Records and The Upstate Sound. “Cigarettes for Breakfast...seems to take up the ideas of the very first (and then still fresh) The Jesus and Mary Chain in search of the perfect love song… from outer space.” - 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐥 𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬 — 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐧𝐞. “This project has the potential to go incredibly far — beyond the walls of local, underground venues.” - 𝐊𝐚𝐲𝐥𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐨 — 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐍𝐨𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐞. https://www.cigarettesforbreakfast.com/links **𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐳𝐞:** Swirling guitars and cascading drums, combined with a strong stance on cis and non-cis genders and sexualities, have made Cambridge quartet Lemondaze one of the most intriguing and exciting bands to emerge from the U.K. underground. Thanks to a hushed female vocal layered over a distorted backdrop that has been likened to artists ranging from Deftones to My Bloody Valentine, the band is now exploring a heavier side of shoegaze, introducing elements of post-rock and breakbeat. Powerful and melodic, epic and dreamy... these soundscapes send me spinning back to the 90s shoey heyday- plus Lemondaze totally rock it live” - 𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐢 𝐁𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐲𝐢 𝐨𝐟 𝐋𝐮𝐬𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐡𝐤𝐚 I was lucky enough to catch a Lemondaze gig, and they are one of my favourite upcoming bands!” - 𝐀𝐧𝐝𝐲 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐟 𝐑𝐢𝐝𝐞 https://linktr.ee/Lemondaze **𝐖𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 (𝐔𝐒):** Olympia Washington’s Waves Crashing channels the iconic sounds of the ’80s and ’90s into something fresh and electrifying; pairing lush, atmospheric soundscapes with melodic hooks. Since their first EP in 2021, they’ve become a fixture of the Pacific Northwest alternative scene through a steady stream of releases and regional touring. They’ve shared the stage with Bully, Wavves, Ringo Deathstarr, Cloakroom, Sun Atoms, The Veldt, Cigarettes For Breakfast, MOAA, and Flyingfish, and appeared at key regional events including West Seattle Summer Fest, South Sound Block Party, LoveOly Summer Fest, Dreamgaze PDX, Tremolo Fest, Seagaze, Band in Seattle, Magnuson Park Live, Fisherman’s Village, Kalamashoegazer, and Festival of Dark Arts.

In 2025, their debut full-length Effection hit #92 on NACC and #88 on KEXP’s Best of 2025, fueling a 16-city U.S. tour and a dreamy reimagining of Radiohead’s “Creep” as a standalone single.

𝐀𝐓𝐇 - 𝐀𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧 https://wavescrashing.bandzoogle.com **𝐒𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐛𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝 (𝐍𝐎):** The new shoegaze trio scoreboard was formed by members from FOAMMM and Clowder at the end of 2023. The Oslo trio plays noisy and atmospheric shoegaze with drowned vocals, soul-piercing guitars, and laid-back drumming, stylistically reminiscent of bands like Slowdive, The Megaphonic Thrift and They Are Gutting A Body of Water. The band’s first two singles, “ropey rampage” and “rush spells”, have both been recommended and played on radio stations in Norway, the UK, and the US. An EP release is around the corner and a full LP on the way soon too. Norwegian music magazine Gaffa.no hails the group as being at the forefront of Norway’s shoegaze revival, writing about their second single “rush spells”: a soft wall of guitars padded with marshmallows, the ’90s, and electric soundwaves.” The band have played at many various venues around Norway such as Landmark, John Dee, Revolver and Goldie. In august 2025 they played at Øyafestivalen, one of the biggest music festivals in Norway and later that year headlined in London for Other Side Promotions. https://www.instagram.com/score_bored https://scoreboardmusic.bandcamp.com https://open.spotify.com/artist/73J3QvrwBMaByhp3xtyp3p **𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐨'𝐬 𝐀𝐮𝐟𝐡𝐞𝐛𝐮𝐧𝐠 (𝐅𝐑):** Darko’s Aufhebung (Aix-en-Provence, France) is a shoegaze/alternative trio influenced by grunge, post-rock, and gothic sounds. On stage, they deliver an entrancing wave of sound punctuated by calm, introspective moments — blending psychedelia with emotional depth. Their first album, Spread Whispers Into Blazing Dawns (2022), initiated their exploration of ethereal and haunting atmospheres, revealing their contemplative melancholy. With Loud Attempts for the Relieving of Death, the band fully embraces the “wall of sound” aesthetics of shoegaze, while emphasizing a raw, immersive spontaneity. Strengthened by asymmetric rhythmic structures, the group’s leitmotif is to channel deep emotions — tender, joyful, or painful — guiding the listener through a dreamlike space rich in poetry and reverie, where hope, anxiety, and nostalgia intertwine. https://linktr.ee/darkosaufhebung **𝐄𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧 (𝐂𝐙):** We are Eternity Again, a shoegaze/indie/dreampop band from Prague. This summer we released our debut album Prophecy, celebrating its launch with a release show at MeetFactory. Eternity is a musical brainchild and a personal project of singer/songwriter Barbora Cihak, who—alongside her successes on the Czech scene—has performed with Alex G, supported Orla Gartland, and reached the finals of Radio Wave’s talent competition. As Eternity Again, we pieced together 13 new sonic mosaics built from countless layers of sound—instrumental lines intertwined with samples of children’s toys, passing cars, sighs, and soft scratches. For Barbora, a strong visual identity is essential, and this record offers an intimate glimpse into her deeply personal predictions, fates and prophecies. Our goal was to assemble restless, textured sound clusters inspired by pioneers like Cocteau Twins and later Sonic Youth, wrapped in the melancholic haze of Slowdive and My Bloody Valentine. https://linktr.ee/EternityAgain This is an 18+ event. This venue has a strict No ID, No entry Policy. Physical government photo ID required, we do not accept photos or copies of ID’s.
