Breakfast in Fur announce the release of their new album, Blue Heaven on November 7, 2025
Ten years after the release of their debut LP Flyaway Garden (2015), Breakfast in Fur returns with their long anticipated follow-up, Blue Heaven.
Initially intended to be released quickly after Flyaway Garden, Blue Heaven’s production was first stalled by a car crash while on tour in 2015. Upon the band’s recovery from the accident, Breakfast in Fur singer and guitarist Dan Wolfe suffered a back injury in 2017 that required surgery and a long recovery. The pandemic delayed progress further on the album. Throughout these challenges, Breakfast in Fur continued to chip away at Blue Heaven with each setback becoming embedded into the resulting album.
Building upon the experimental folk pop of their first two albums, Blue Heaven expands the band’s musical palette with an atmosphere of melancholy punctuated by moments of sublime beauty. Exploring themes of attraction, mortality, nostalgia, and loss, Breakfast in Fur crafts a complex aural landscape that concentrates the sonic experimentations of Flyaway Garden into a singular mood and vision. The album cover, a painting by band member Kaitlin Van Pelt, features guitarist Michael Hollis and Van Pelt during one of the Blue Heaven recording sessions.
Blue Heaven was produced by Dan Wolfe (vocals/ rhythm guitar) and Kaitlin Van Pelt (vocals/ keyboard) with contributions from Michael Hollis (lead guitar/ bass), Chris Walker (drums) and guest musicians at various studios and at their homes between 2015 and 2025.
Blue Heaven will be released on 100 limited edition blue cassettes. Breakfast in Fur will reunite for one show at the O+ Exchange Clinic and Gallery at 334 Wall St., Kingston NY on November 8, 2025 in celebration of the album’s release.
Breakfast in Fur was started in the Hudson Valley town of New Paltz, NY in 2009 by guitarist/ singer Dan Wolfe, keyboardist/ singer Kaitlin Van Pelt, and guitarist/ bassist Michael Hollis. Drummer Chris Walker joined the band in 2012. Past members of the band include bassist Sandy Davis (2012-2014) and multi-instrumentalist Matt Ross (2010-2012).
Breakfast in Fur’s first EP was initially self-released on handmade CD-R’s in 2009 and later re-released by Analog Edition Records in 2011. In 2012 Breakfast In Fur appeared on New Paltz based Team Love Record’s Die Pfalz compilation. In 2015 Breakfast In Fur signed with Bar None Records and released their debut full length, Flyaway Garden. Following a car crash while on tour in 2015, Breakfast In Fur went on an extended hiatus while they worked on their next album Blue Heaven, released in 2025.
