Cover art for the new Japanese Breakfast album.
A video game composer, prolific music video director, musician and author, Michelle Zauner tours and records as the indie pop outfit Japanese Breakfast.

The band recently announced that it’ll expand its late summer/early fall tour to include an Aug. 5 stop at the Agora Theatre.

The jaunt supports the band’s new album, Jubilee, as well as Zauner’s new memoir, Crying in H Mart, a book about her early childhood and the time she spent between the U.S. and South Korea.

A ticket presale begins at 11 a.m. today.
