Chet Faker
ABOUT
Since 2011, when he went properly viral before the word even existed, Chet Faker has carved out his own extraordinary path to success. With his first EP, Thinking in Textures, he won Breakthrough Artist of the Year and Best Independent Single/EP at the Australian Independent Records Awards, building his reputation as an artist on a meteoric rise. The following years saw his cover of Blackstreet’s “No Diggity” featured in a Super Bowl commercial and his 2014 debut LP Built on Glass debut at #1, spawning the hits “Gold” and “Talk Is Cheap” (the latter topping Triple J’s Hottest 100) and ultimately earning five ARIA Awards.
In the years since, he's continued to build a critically acclaimed discography — including collaborations with artists like Flume and Marcus Marr, several albums under his birth name, Nick Murphy, and the much lauded 2021 full-length, Hotel Surrender, which included the hits “Low” and “Feel Good”. Earlier this year, Chet Faker returned with his first new single since 2023, “Far Side of the Moon” — shimmering proof that his journey is far from over.
