Max Surban is a Filipino Cebuano singer-songwriter. He has been given the "King of Visayan Song". Although known primarily for his singing of novelty songs, he has also recorded romantic ballads.

Contents

Like his fellow Visayan, the Bol-anon singer Yoyoy Villame, Max Surban has also become famous for his singing of so-called novelty songs . On several occasions, both Yoyoy Villame and Max Surban have appeared together on stage and even recorded together with a few albums. They were also in the Pamilya Ukay-OKay comedy TV show in Cebu.

Max wrote most of his own songs and, at the time of this writing, has made more than 30 albums. He also wrote and sang Tagalog songs.

"Ang Tao'y Marupok", the Rico J. Puno song was composed by Max Surban and Ernie Dela Peña. He wrote songs for Pilita Corrales, including duets they performed together, such as "Kon Magkabulag Ta", "Gugmang Dinali-Dali", "Pagbantay Gyud Inday" and "Diyos Ko Day".
