“Life sucks. Ha ha!” laughs from the indie four-piece EggPlantEgg—Ki-pin Ng (keyboard/lead vocals), A-ren Tsai (guitar/backing vocals), A-der Hsieh (guitar/backing vocals) and Jean Lai (drums)—in their music.
Humor is their armor and carefree words are their swords on the battlefield of meaningful, trivial matters. They sing stories about beauty, purity and the ordinary things in Mandarin and Taiwanese in rock, electronic, blues and pop style. With sweeping guitar solos and catchy blues riffs, they belt out power ballads to explore relatable sentiments, like brotherhood, pains of growth and (unrequited) love.
Since 2014, EggPlantEgg starts their music journey and released their debut studio album “Cartoon Character” in July 2017, which won the Golden Melody Awards (2018) for both “Best New Artist” and “Best Taiwanese Album”, and got nominations for “Best Musical Group” and “Album of the Year”.
