More on Rainbow Kitten Surprise

As if channeling another dimension where genres simply don’t exist, Rainbow Kitten Surprise finds harmony in unpredictability – weaving together lyrical poetry, hummable melodies, and a rush of instrumental eccentricities.

Now boasting over 2 billion global streams across platforms, the band first began building its 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 and Paste.

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