eSzínház online: FELEFÁNT Concert and Poetry
Elefánt is one of the most popular Hungarian bands of the 2010s, but surely everyone is aware of that by now. What may be less well known is that the band – which is at home with everything from alternative rock to post-chanson-rock – originally started out as a duo in Szombathely, the birthplace of the band. Csaba Szendrői (vocals) and András Tóth (guitar) were helped by friends and fellow musicians from their hometown of Szombathely even in their early days, but until 2012 they mainly wrote songs together. Then, over the last decade, in addition to the rapidly increasing popularity of the band, they occasionally return to the duo formation. FELEFÁNT [BTW, a wordplay on ‘half of Elephant’] mostly plays popular Elefánt songs with minimal instrumentation, but they also perform arrangements of Csaba Szendrői's published poetry. This time they will be joined on stage by another performer, Panka Kovács.
