About

I’m a singer-songwriter, and music and improvisation have been with me since childhood. Now I’m stepping back in front of an audience with my own songs, in a clearer, more mature and more personal voice.

Music has been a natural part of my life since I was a child. Not only through singing and songwriting, but through improvisation too, which has been there almost from the start: in music, on stage, and often in everyday life.

I grew up in Királyhelmec, a Hungarian town in what is now southern Slovakia, and over the years music became the language I can speak most honestly in. There were intense years with bands, then quieter ones when other things came first: I moved to Budapest, built a business and started a family. Music never left my life in that time. It just settled deeper inside me.

In recent years I’ve kept growing through singing, songwriting, a producer’s ear and work on stage. In 2018 I joined Soharóza, an unusual, experimental vocal ensemble where improvisation, creating together and stage presence opened up music for me from a new side. That freedom lives on in my own songs: they’re often born from an inner flicker, a mood or an unexpected musical moment.

My music moves between pop-rock, blues and jazz, but in every song I’m looking for honesty, closeness and hope.

This site is a record of that path and the start of a new chapter.
