MORDÁI
The folk-rock band founded by Soma Nóvé, who became known with Middlemist Red, and inspired by the experimental Hungarian folk music of the 1960s and 1970s, boldly reimagines folk songs and well-known melodies with jazz motifs and improvisational elements. With their psychedelic sound, evoking the dark spirit of the highwaymen, the band, which initially consisted of a single guitarist, has since expanded to a six-piece line-up and quickly became a prominent feature of Budapest's concert scene.

The popular folk-rock band MORDÁI, which was founded by Soma Nóvé - who made his name with the group Middlemist Red - feeds on the bedrock of experimental Hungarian folk music of the 1960s and 70s, boldly reconceptualising folk songs and well-known melodies with jazz motifs and elements of improvisation. Though Nóvé initially performed with a single guitar, MORDÁI has since expanded to a six-person group featuring a psychedelic sound that conjures up a dark bandit-like personality, and which has become a true highlight of the Budapest concert scene. The album, Álom esett a szememre (A Dream Fell On My Eyes), which was released at the end of 2022, received plaudits from the general public and critics alike.
