Chess At Breakfast is a Fort Collins, Colorado-based indie/alternative band known for blending progressive songcraft with heavier, darker textures. Formed in 2016 by Caleb McFadden, Justin Daggett, and Mike Davis, the trio has carved out a distinctive sound that sits at the intersection of prog, metal, and psychedelic rock. Their work has been self-released, reflecting a DIY ethos that remains central to their identity. Although public activity paused after 2021, the catalog remains a compelling snapshot of a young band pushing the boundaries of indie rock with thoughtful composition and dynamic performances.
