The Breakfast (formerly Psychedelic Breakfast) is an American jam band known for its style of progressive and funk rock, in addition to its exploratory nature of improvisation. The band was formed in 1998 in East Haven, Connecticut and the lineup consists of guitarist Tim Palmieri, bassist Chris DeAngelis, drummer Adrian Tramontano, and keyboardist Jordan Giangreco. They decided on their first name, Psychedelic Breakfast, based on the suggestion of Tramontano's cousin. It is a reference to the Pink Floyd song "Alan's Psychedelic Breakfast," from their album Atom Heart Mother. The original idea of the band's name was a play off of that song, "Adrian's Psychedelic Breakfast," after Tramontano; it was later shortened to just Psychedelic Breakfast.The band began cutting its teeth by playing shows at a variety of local bars in the New Haven, Connecticut area during the early goings of 1999. That summer, they released their first alb
um, Psychedelic Breakfast. Four songs from the album were featured on the MTV series, Undressed. As 1999 wore on and the world turned the page to the new millennium, Psychedelic Breakfast began to progressively start spreading throughout the Northeast. In 2004, Psychedelic Breakfast won a Jammy Award for being the "New Groove of the Year."Shortly thereafter, the band decided to change its name to 'The Breakfast.' Around this time, Relix Magazine published an article about The Breakfast. On June 17, 2006, The Breakfast performed its 1,000th show at Toad's Place in New Haven, Connecticut.
