We are a band that make ambient, psychedelic, post-rock, krautrock, electronic music.

Blending elements of progressive rock and indie psych, Chess at Breakfast imposes manic hooks and tenacious rhythms over lyrical themes of despair and disillusionment. Their electrifying live performances embody an angsty disposition, powered by high voltage and dark humor.

Featuring vocalist/guitarist Caleb McFadden, bassist Justin Daggett, and drummer Mike Davis, the trio formed in the summer of 2016 and spent the majority of that fall working on their debut EP, 'The Gutshalls'. Following the release of their singles "Pushing Daisies (On Your Day Off)" and "Paper Crane" in 2018, Chess at Breakfast have been tirelessly preparing for the release of their debut LP, 'Wealthcare'.

'Wealthcare' is available everywhere on May 10th.
