FreshFabrik

FreshFabrik is a Hungarian rock band, consisting of István Horváth (vocals), Béla Barabás and Mátyás Koncz (guitar), András Szabó (drums) and Levente Kovács (bass & programming).

History

FreshFabrik was formed in 1994, and performed a debut concert the same year in the Petőfi Csarnok as the guest of Run-D.M.C.. This was the real beginning of the band and this concert led to the release of their first album "Certificado" on HMK Music. In the next two years they toured many times in Hungary and went on an international tour (Yugoslavia, Germany, Italy, etc.) In 1997 the band went to Warner Music Hungary and released a new album, "Nerve". FreshFabrik enjoyed particular success with this album in Hungary and in 2000, after a highly successful Australian tour, Warner Music Australia issued the album in Australia. At the end of 2000 their third album, "Drive My Hand" was released. In the same year just before presenting their new album the band performed a concert at the Sziget Festival as the guest of Bloodhound Gang and Bad Religion. On 12 June 2001 they performed a concert in Prague, in the Strahov Stadion, as the guest of AC/DC, in front of 35,000 people.

Previous lineups included Krisztián Keszei (guitar), András Vörös (vocals), Dávid Schram (guitar) and Tamás Somlai (DJ).
