An underground alternative pop artist.
California-born Zóra Urbányi is making waves as a Hungarian-American singer-songwriter with a sound that pushes boundaries. Recognized as one of Budapest's most unique musical artists, her voice is rich, deep, and unmistakable. Rooted in strong, timeless songwriting, she blends avant-pop with cinematic textures, delivering raw vulnerability and an energy that pulls you in and stays with you. After an intimate live performance gained significant online attention, ZÓRA continues to sell out leading concert halls in Hungary, including MÜPA Budapest, while also performing internationally in Berlin, Prague, New York City, and Los Angeles. She has headlined SXSW, performed at the Sundance Film Festival, and most recently opened for artists such as Alanis Morissette and Zaz. Her work has been recognized with Best New Artist at Hungary's Fonogram Awards, a place on Forbes 30 Under 30, and a Petőfi Award nomination for Best Female Artist. Whether solo at a grand piano or backed by a full band, her live performances are magnetic, almost sacred-piano ballads, synth-driven moods, and stripped-back storytelling-thriving on improvisation, making every performance feel spontaneous yet perfectly placed.
ZÓRA plays avant-pop and alternative music characterized by rich, deep vocals, cinematic soundscapes, and intimate piano arrangements.
ZÓRA splits her time between Los Angeles, California, and Budapest, Hungary.
