S�nd�rgo - Tamburocket - Hungarian Fireworks

Fast and furious, fingers flying with a fiery panache, the Hungarian group S�nd�rgo are one of the most exciting bands in Europe. With their signature instrument, the tambura, the band brilliantly combines respect for tradition with a desire to innovate and a fizzing virtuosity.

Listening to the band play, you soon hear it's nothing like traditional violin-led Hungarian music. S�nd�rgo's sound is light, springy and delicately plucked. Their signature instrument is the tambura, a mandolin-like instrument, probably of Turkish origin, used by the South Slav (Serbian and Croatian) communities in Hungary.

The band is made up of three brothers, �ron, Benjamin and Salamon Eredics, plus cousin D�vid Eredics and Attila Buz�s, the only non-family member, on bass tambura. �ron Eredics is also part of the band Vujicsics, winners of Hungary's most prestigious state-sponsored cultural award, the Kossuth Prize, in 2014.

'Tamburocket' is S�nd�rgo's second international release and features revived tunes drawn from the rich Hungarian archives and annals of the countries esteemed song-collectors and musicologists of yore.
