There isn’t too much of anything in Australia that we don’t like. When it comes to music it’s like the soil itself is releasing these demons upon us. Surprise Chef is one of those groups taking the energy of the sun and turning it into fun. The group has released at least a handful of fantastic instrumental EPs this year that fall right into the category of great, not just good.
We took a snippet of the band’s promo to see what they had to say about themselves: 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. They push the boundaries of instrumental soul and funk with their own approach honed by countless hours in the studio, studying the masters, and perhaps most importantly, the ‘tyranny of distance’ that dictates a unique perspective to their music.
Without words, these songs evoke emotion and creativity without the guardrails of lyrics. They allow the listener to go deep into their own consciousness and explore. The group has bookings all across the U.S. for the rest of the year here is a link for tickets here. The link to Spotify is here.
