Tickets go on sale today for alternative pop band Japanese Breakfast, who will play at The Momentary on Sept. 17. Japanese Breakfast is the moniker of the musical group led by Michelle Zauner. Her latest album, "Jubilee," follows Zauner's New York Times best-selling memoir, "Crying in H Mart," which explores the loss of her mother who was her anchor to her Korean roots. Japanese Breakfast's prior albums, "Psychopomp" and "Soft Sounds from Another Planet," gained considerable acclaim for songs exploring the trappings of grief and the intricacy of young love told with Zauner's wit and intelligence. Tickets to the Sept. 15 show are $15 for students, $34 for general admission and $150 for premium. More information at themomentary.org.
