Színpadra fel! – Eskimo Lunettes

As part of the Fringe program, launched in 2024 to support the mission of the Hungarian House of Music—we issued a call for applications in three categories—we are offering emerging musicians and amateur bands at the beginning of their careers, as well as street musicians, music schools, and music workshops, the opportunity to perform at various locations within the House. The “On Stage!” series features talented, up-and-coming musicians and amateur music groups (bands, vocal ensembles, mixed groups, etc.) who are just starting out and have had little opportunity to introduce themselves to a wider audience. This time, Eskimo Lunettes will be performing on the Open-Air Stage.

Eskimo Lunettes was launched in 2021 as a bedroom project by Gergő Csicsics. After releasing eight self-published EPs and two singles, they finally had the opportunity to take the stage as a live band in 2025. With the addition of Dániel Pataki, Donát Oletics, and Péter Márk Kiss, they not only function as a real band but have also elevated their creative energy to a new level.

"Our music is defined by a fusion of genres: riffs evoking the vibe of ’60s surf rock meet hypnotic drum and bass lines, which are made even more chaotic by noise-like synthesizer themes. Improvisation and spontaneity play an important role in the songs. The band’s sixth album (Sixth) is particularly noteworthy, as it shifts the focus from guitars to keyboards.”
