As if channeling another dimension where genres simply don’t exist, Rainbow Kitten Surprisefinds harmony in unpredictability –weaving together lyrical poetry, hummable melodies, and a rush of instrumental eccentricities. Now boasting over2 billion global streamsacross platforms, the band first began building their devoted fanbase with independent albums SEVEN + MARY(2013) and RKS (2015). In May 2024, Rainbow Kitten Surprise released their first album in six years, LOVE HATE MUSIC BOX.Produced by Daniel Tashian(Kacey Musgraves) along with Konrad Snyder(Noah Kahan) and lead singer Ela Melo, the record is the band’s most vulnerable project yet, and has been met with critical praise from Billboard, Consequence, Paste, and more. LOVE HATE MUSIC BOX follows the band’s breakout full-length debut for Elektra, HOW TO: FRIEND, LOVE, FREEFALL, which arrived in April 2018. Produced by GRAMMY® Award-winner Jay Joyce(Cage The Elephant, Lainey Wilson), the album featured RIAA-certified Platinum single “It’s Called: Freefall,” earned widespread praise from Billboard, TIME, Vice,and NPR, and saw the band make several national television appearances, including performances on “CBS Saturday Morning,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” and PBS’s “Austin City Limits.” After gracing the bills of Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Osheaga, to name a few, RKS moved 80,000 tickets of their own on the sold-out 2018/2019Friend, Love, Freefall Tour.

Following a sold-out run of underplay shows in May, Rainbow Kitten Surprise returned to the road this fall for the LOVE HATE MUSIC BOX Tour, which notably marked their largest tour to date. The 35-show run included multiple arena headline dates, a stop at Radio City Music Hall in New York, and two nights at the iconic Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles.

Rainbow Kitten Surprise is: Ela Melo(she/her; lead vocals), Darrick “Bozzy” Keller(he/him; guitar, vocals), Ethan Goodpaster(he/him; lead guitar, vocals), Jess Haney(he/him; drums).
