Hey, June!

After a long break, at the start of 2019 Kistehén returned with a new album. Their seventh record, Bocsánat faithfully follows the sound of earlier Kistehén albums while also being completely different. It is independent, free, experimental and boundary-pushing both in terms of the music and lyrics. Kistehén have no taboos, so there is nothing to be broken down, everything is out in the open. They routinely jump and dance around together, sometimes laughing, sometimes turning to a ballad-like melancholy. While the material on their album can be somewhat opaque at times, it's impossible to listen to it without a smile on your face. The music and lyrics are full of humour, absurdity and the avant-garde. The songs also don't lack for that social sensitivity we have come to expect from the group, dealing with the complicated and indecipherable issues and strains of male-female relations.
While previous Kistehén albums were essentially the sole work of László Kollár-Klemencz, the new album features his lyrics but also a unique musical sound created by the entire Kistehén band. A true co-production featuring the personal words of László Kollár-Klemencz. The band present their album Bocsánat with a special performance at Müpa Budapest. The audience will have the opportunity to enjoy new and cult Kistehén songs in a concert featuring special guest performers and a full female gospel choir.
