Phonons have provided an ideal platform for a variety of intriguing physical states, such as non-Abelian braiding and the Haldane model. It is promising that phonons will realize the complicated nodal states accompanying unusual quantum phenomena. Here, we propose the hybrid nodal surface and nodal line (NS+NL) phonons beyond the single-genre nodal phonons. We categorize the NS+NL phonons into two- and four-band situations based on symmetry analysis and compatibility relationships. Combining database screening with first-principles calculations, we identify the ideal candidate materials for realizing all categorized NS+NL phonons. Our calculations and tight-binding models further demonstrate that the interplay between NS and NL induces unique phenomena. In space group (SG) 113, the quadratic NL acts as a hub of the Berry curvature between two NSs, generating ribbonlike surface states (SSs). In SG 128, the NS serves as the counterpart of the Weyl NL, in which NS-NL mixed topological SSs are observed. Our findings extend the scope of hybrid nodal states and enrich the phononic states in realistic materials.
