Siklósi Örs unreleased album listening
Örs Siklósi, the singer-songwriter who passed away in 2021, did not only create lasting works in AWS: in his solo project, he performed his own compositions and covers with a single guitar. His songs had been accumulating for a long time, many of which did not fit into the world of AWS, so Örs only played them to a small circle of friends. Later, these songs formed the basis for solo performances, and in 2014, a separate band was formed: Ersch.
Schedule
Örs formed Ersch with his fellow musicians and friends Áron Veress, Gergő Varga, and Gergely Gadolla, and their first song and music video, Bajt okoz, was released in 2016. In 2019, he decided that he wanted to release an album of the songs he had written over the years, which he had already recorded, with only the finishing touches remaining when the work process was interrupted. His family and friends felt that this material was too valuable to remain in a drawer, so they joined forces to complete the solo album. The process was long and emotionally draining, but now the time has come to show what Örs and they have been working on over the past few years.
The album will be presented in an unusual way on September 4, 2025, Örs's birthday, in the main hall of the Hungarian House of Music. The audience will hear the entire album for the first time, the creators will talk about this painful yet beautiful process, and the band Ersch will perform three songs live. Seating is limited, but those who miss out need not worry: the album will also be released on digital platforms on the same day and will be available on CD on the website of the foundation dedicated to preserving Örs's memory.
Supporters can purchase tickets for the event, with all proceeds going to support the foundation's work. It will be a special evening: a moment of farewell and gratitude, when Örs's voice will be heard again, just as he himself would have wanted.
