Dahmer's Breakfast is the performance art practice of Art Dahmer. Dahmer's music falls most closely into the genre known as Antifolk. Antifolk is characterized as a musical style that “promotes song-writing over technique and personality over polish. Some see it as the evolution of folk, others as a combination of punk and folk.” Visually, Dahmer’s performances feature outrageous outfits and projections of homemade videos. Described by others as “feel bad music,” Dahmer’s Breakfast’s songs highlight dark and unfortunate themes, such as how the Rockefeller’s started Big Pharma, the discomfort of sharing a last name with a notorious serial killer, and other instances of self-deprecating humor. Dahmer's Breakfast held a year long residency at the Ghost Light in Hamtramck, Michigan as the founder, booker, promoter, performer, and host of the monthly LGBTQIA+ variety show, "HAMTRAMCK IS GAY!"

Dahmer's introductory album, Dahmer’s Breakfast, was released in 2021. In 2022, Dahmer released an EP titled, Antifolk Erotica, which explored themes of queer sexuality and modern dating culture. Dahmer's second album, Symbol Hysteria, was released in April of 2023. Symbol Hysteria dissects Dahmer's experience sharing a last name with a serial killer and the human experience of perception through chains of association. The album's release was accompanied by a 360 degree film presented at the Cranbrook Institute of Science's Acheson Planetarium in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Most recently, Dahmer released an EP, Comedic Tragedies (2026), which brings a humorous, cynical, and extraordinarily informative twist to some of folk musics greatest hits.
