__________________________________________
Chef’Special is a five-piece popband from the Netherlands with a unique blend of hip-hop, rock and reggae. Since their formation in 2008, Dutch band Chef’Special has released four albums and toured extensively across Europe and the US. In spring 2024 the band will release their newest album which includes the recent singles ‘Miracles’ and ‘Speed Of Light’.

A huge part of Chef’Special’s success are their already legendary live performances in which the audience is as vital to the experience as the band themselves. Whether Chef’Special is touring America as support act of Twenty One Pilots, performing on the main stage at festivals like Lowlands, Pinkpop, Sziget, or in huge sold-out venues like Ziggo Dome (16.000 cap) in Amsterdam; they always convince the whole audience and turn every show in a party. 

Although Chef’Special’s musical palette encompasses various genres, the band has a very recognizable sound in which their own emotions and experiences are front and center. Since their gold-winning debut album 'One for the Mrs.' in 2011, Chef'Special has become one of their country's most beloved bands. Albums such as 'Passing Through' (2014) and 'Amigo' (2017) achieved a platinum status. Songs such as 'Amigo', 'In Your Arms' and 'Afraid Of The Dark' have become classics.
