“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”

-Will Fairley (Andy’s Dad)

Andy Pankakes, AKA Breakfast Lord, AKA the Original Brunch Daddy, is pioneering a new musical style known as Breakfast Music.

Known for inspiring audience participation and laughter, Andy has won over crowd after crowd, amassing a tight knit yet extensive following.

Recent career highlights include performing at a sold out show at the Catalyst Club with Peter Cat Recording Co and creating his own Breakfast Themed event, Pankake Fest. In 2025 he released his EP Too Many Songs featuring the anthemic track for our times: Internet Girlfriend. 2024 saw the release of his debut album, “100% Pure Maple,” featuring Tammi Brown, Dan Robbins, Eddie Mendenhall and Javier Torres, who are among the creme de la creme of Bay Area session players.
