Cigarettes for Breakfast is a Philadelphia-based band known for their lush soundscapes and raw, emotive, fuzzed-out performances, capturing the essence of shoegaze and dream pop greats, such as My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive. 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, amongst others! by @cigarettesforbreakfastband

We are a few days out from being just 1 month away from our second city stop for the @ihaveadreampop Shoegaze and DreamPop music and arts fest that’ll be happening on Friday, 10/16/26, and on Saturday, 10/17, 2026, @neptunes.parlour in Raleigh, NC.

We are thrilled to have Philadelphia based @cigarettesforbreakfastband on this bill 💥&💥 Cigarettes for Breakfast will be back with us in NYC on Saturday, 10/24/26.

Cigarettes for Breakfast is a Philadelphia-based band known for their lush soundscapes and raw, emotive, fuzzed-out performances, capturing the essence of shoegaze and dream pop greats, such as My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive. 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.

Cigarettes for Breakfast, at its core, is a DIY project. 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. taken in Neptunes by @cigarettesforbreakfastband
