Jürgen Krauss, a much loved contestant from 2021’s The Great British Bake Off, played trombone with Japanese Breakfast at the Kentish Town Forum in London last month.
Japanese Breakfast (whose real name is Michelle Zauner) and her band developed a tradition of watching Bake Off together every Friday during the pandemic.
“Jürgen was our favourite. We all rooted for him. It feels so full circle that he’s here, playing trombone with us, on our last leg. We made a home on the road through him.” Zauner explained in an interview with NME.

Krauss played trombone for ‘Slide Tackle’, a song from Japanese Breakfast’s 2021 album ‘Jubilee’, which ended the main set at the show.
