Breadfoot is spawn of the East River Delta. He digs his whiskey neat and his coffee black. He is a one-man band who has a rather idiosyncratic take on life. His wide range of influences from The Carter Family and The Sherman Brothers to Tom Waits and The Replacements, fuel his unique brand of Tin Pan Folk & Americana.

Live Breadfoot has been described by London Time Out, as "....gritty guitar picking and home-spun wisdom....a raconteur par excellence" He has shared the stage with The Avett Brothers, Malcolm Holcombe, Regina Spektor, Kimya Dawson, Langhorne Slim, The Decemberists, Richard Buckner, Gary Lucas, and the Larry Love Show Band (the acoustic branch of Alabama 3).

His most recent full-length album Salvatella, was released in August 2015, and from the opening solo acoustic salve of the title track to the final cymbal crash of the Dixieland inspired Still Can’t (Find My Heart) that closes out the side it proves to be his most adventurous to date. The album was described by Americana UK as “…a refreshing alternative to some of the more archetypal Americana” And regarded by fRoots Magazine as "...beguiling and varied...well-crafted songs of love and loss...superior stuff and very charming." While Babysue declared Salvatella to be "...a real cool slice of underground Americana folk / pop played with class, style, and a whole helluva lot of personality."

Breadfoot has written and recorded as Just About To Burn, with Anti-folk legend and Ramseur Records recording artist, Paleface who has collaborated with the Avett Brothers and has been cited by Beck as a musical influence. In addition, Breadfoot has written and recorded with British violinist and composer Anna Phoebe, who has also worked with Roxy Music, Oi Va Voi, Jethro Tull, Jon Lord, and the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Breadfoot’s music has been featured in several episodes of Road Trip Nation on PBS. You can also find his music in the feature length documentary 10 MPH and the feature length comedy ‘The Karaoke Brothers.’ In addition, Breadfoot contributed music to a work in progress reel for the locally produced original documentary film ‘ Bringing It Home,’ and his song 'A Hard Day In Manhattan' was featured in the investigative documentary ‘Abandoned.’
 
Currently Breadfoot aka Stephan John Meyers, is knee deep in writing for his first musical to be called, 'SUNNYLAND.' It identifies as a rock banjo opera. As result of the live performance of the first three numbers at the Chatham Arts Jumpstart Walkabout December 2022 he was invited to participate in the Process Series at UNC. A staged reading of SUNNYLAND scheduled for February 7th & 8th, 2025 was huge success. 

Development continues as he works to add several new numbers and complete a third rough draft of the libretto. Applying for grants and seeking out new opportunities for concert style staged readings, along the way.
