Chef Defect is an eight-piece funk/hip-hop band that knows how to turn any occasion into a celebration! With their high-energy music and sharp guitar riffs, staying still is impossible, while their lyrics carry profound messages. Over the past two years, they've played more than 30 shows, including at Over de Top Festival in Lichtenvoorde, Booster Festival, Burgerweeshuis, Camping Stortemelk in Vlieland, the Nijmegen Four Days Marches, and many more. Their dynamic performances have caught the attention of not only new fans but also industry professionals, with the comment: "Chef Defect goes full throttle!" ... "This band would fit perfectly at any summer festival," said Chris Dekker in Musicmaker. On October 24, 2024, they released their debut EP, a major milestone that was celebrated with a release show at an almost sold-out Hedon Zwolle and a well-attended EP tour to Utrecht and Haarlem.
