KOLIBRI

Behind the stage name Kolibri lies András Bognár, an artist who has gained increasing popularity within the Hungarian pop and festival scene over the past four years. In his profound, Hungarian-language songs, he blends alternative/indie music with electronic elements. His goal is to create an intimate, melancholic atmosphere where listeners can focus on their inner experiences—leaving the outside world behind to immerse themselves in their own inner realms.

Kolibri’s debut album, *Nagyon Jó, Nagyon Rossz, Nagyon jó* (2023), was a hit with both critics and audiences, leading to sold-out club shows and festival appearances. He is the creator of the *Végtelen Jövő* (Infinite Future) anthem for the Hajógyár project, has released two singles in collaboration with Hundred Sins, and is a frequent collaborator with the Wavy collective. The album was followed by the *KEIKO* single in September 2023, and a five-track EP titled *Ballagás*—a collaboration with Co Lee and TEM-BO—in late 2024. Originally a solo act, the project has since expanded into a full band. The band’s second album, *Rúnák* (Runes), was released in the spring of 2025, followed by a series of singles.

"Thank you for letting me mess it up,

Thank you for letting me be here." 

“Celebrate this wonderful year with us aboard the A38 Ship. Our dear friend Barnabás Héra will also be joining us with his fresh solo project.

This has been our busiest year yet. We toured the country early in the year, played a sold-out tour in Transylvania—four stops in five days—and headlined at Kobuci for the first time. We performed at countless summer festivals—on increasingly larger stages, much to my delight—and appeared as guests for Carson Coma at Budapest Park; we even kicked off an autumn tour with Elefánt. There is a uniquely heartwarming feeling in collaborating with productions of such high caliber.

We went on a creative retreat, launched a merch drop, created posters, graphics, and music videos, released new songs, and I even designed a hummingbird-themed game.

We are currently working on our new album, which I hope you’ll hear next year. I am convinced it will be our best material to date—though, to be fair, I always feel that way.

I’ve wanted this for as long as I can remember. I couldn't quite put it into words, and often denied it, but now that I’ve lived it for a year, I believe this is exactly why I’m here. It feels great to be certain; and while I do still mess a few things up—not that it really changes the outcome—it’s still a good feeling.” StEFREM
