GERGEDAN

In our first album, I wrote that music is energy. The past years have shown just how deeply the world depends on it. Between 2019 and 2025, we faced events that reshaped our lives: pandemics that kept us apart, conflicts that redrew borders, and a constant tide of uncertainty. Yet music never stopped moving. It crossed boundaries, ignored differences, and brought people together when so much else pushed them apart. Regardless of age, culture, or belief, this energy connects us and feeds our souls.

Music is more than entertainment, it preserves stories, bridges distances, and creates moments of belonging. This album continues that legacy, blending our own compositions with pieces inspired by traditional folk melodies. Some tracks feel familiar in spirit, others are entirely new, yet all together they reflect the rich diversity that defines us as a band.
