At that time, the band consisted of vocalist David Koval, bassist Jeff "Tennessee Beans" Beahn, guitarist Christopher Colbert, and drummer Paul Pellegrin.
After limited release through Narrowpath (suffering from payment and accounting problems with their distributor) the band signed with Michael Knott's Blonde Vinyl Records in 1991.
[4] With a new label that could better represent the band's progressive music and image, Breakfast with Amy quickly moved to the forefront of the underground Christian rock scene that had been taking shape in Orange County - Southern California since the early 80's.
After the collapse of Blonde Vinyl Records (due to Spectra Distribution, Inc. filing for bankruptcy) [6] the band dissolved.
Breakfast with Amy is remembered by fans of the fledgling alternative Christian rock scene as one of the staples of Blonde Vinyl Records, being present on nearly all of their compilation CDs (as well as other alternative Christian rock compilations) and being one of only a few artists on the label to make a music video.
Typical performances featured costumed band members, Go go dancing, flaming taxidermy, and movie projectors used as stage lighting.
Band musical influences include U2, Echo & the Bunnymen, Sonic Youth, The Who, The Ramones, The Sex Pistols and The New York Dolls.
