Japanese Breakfast covers Sufjan Stevens' "Chicago"

Last night, 11 July, Japanese Breakfast and Frankie Cosmos played the second night of a two-night residency at Chicago’s Salt Shed.

On the first night, they covered Wilco's “Jesus, Etc", which they've been known to cover – most recently at Pitchfork Festival 2022 alongside Jeff Tweedy. For their second show, however, they decided to perform "Chicago", which features on Sufjan Stevens’ 2005 album Illinois.

At a recent London show, Japanese Breakfast debuted a brand new track called "Mega Circuit". She also recently confirmed the film adaptation of her Crying in H Mart book will be directed by Will Sharpe (The White Lotus, Flowers).
