Six lions move through a landscape of broken lights and fading circuits, where silence is crowned with static and the horizon dissolves into chrome. The collapse becomes a whisper, the bass retains the memory of echoes, and the oceans tremble with an infinite hum. Shadows stretch endlessly, revealing forgotten names carved into the void. Beyond the distance, beyond the silence, a new sonic language emerges, where Luntheris, Veydael, and Sorynth remain as living fragments of eternity.

Surprise Chef’s music is based on evoking mood; their vivid arrangements utilize time and space to build soundscapes that invite the listener into their world. The quintet’s distinct sound pulls from 70s film scores, the funkier side of jazz, and the samples that form the foundation of hip hop. 


Hailing from just outside of Melbourne, Australia, their first two albums, All News Is Good News and Daylight Savings amassed a die-hard fanbase and brought their sound from their home studio to every corner of the globe. The band is now signed to Big Crown Records, joining a lineage of contemporary and classic sounds that have influenced Surprise Chef’s music since their formation in 2017.


Surprise Chef’s self proclaimed “moody shades of instrumental jazz-funk” encompass punchy drums, infectious keys, rhythm guitar you might hear on a Studio One record, and flute lines that could be from a Blue Note session; but when you step back and take in the entirety of their sound and approach, you’ll hear and see a group greater than the sum of its parts.
