A stylish, underground folk act.
Hét Hat Club was born in the Budapest underground, where ruin bar art punks, international vagabonds, and folk dance maniacs met. As common street musicians, various formations of Hét Hat traveled through Europe, North, Central and South America. Their sound has gathered favorite elements of rhythm and style to bring back to the modern Hungarian Karpat-Balkan folk songs.

Last album (WibbleWabble) was supported by National Cultural Fund of Hungary.
