Before Breakfast are an indie/folk band from Sheffield, who met up at University around 2016, and originally comprised Gina, Debra, Annie and Lucy, weaving strong melodies, jazz-inflected piano and ethereal cello with sweet harmonies in songs that rise up from the depths of womanhood. The four members all have a wealth of musical experience behind them in the fields of classical music, musical theatre and folk, and have worked with or been part of other bands such as Reverend And The Makers, Jon Boden & The Remnant Kings, Hey Sholay, Screaming Maldini and Renegade Brass Band. Around 2019 they slimmed down to a trio after Annie left, and the core of the band is currently just Gina and Lucy, with other musicians helping out when needed. They've been posting songs on Soundcloud for a while now, and have a number of singles available on Bandcamp, and although an album was planned for 2018, it has yet to appear, so I've taken a few of their singles and some Soundcloud tracks to make up an album which will tide us over until the actual one does finally surface.
