Cigarettes for Breakfast was founded by Matthew Paul Whiteford in winter, 2019 in Philadelphia, PA. Whiteford is mainly inspired by ’90s alternative bands, such as My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and Ride. Cigarettes for Breakfast exhibits classic shoegaze elements, including a plethora of effects, intricate pedal-work and washy, droning guitars.
The majority of the instrumentation is performed and self-recorded by Whiteford with the full band consisting of Tony Rossi, Cameron Kynett, Donnie CoCo, and Chris Doyle. After a successful first year in 2020 with the release of the Cigarettes for Breakfast EP and Aphantasia, Cigarettes for Breakfast is now starting 2021 with a two-song single called “Wait.” The band is currently back in the studio while eagerly awaiting the return of live performances.
