About Me

Sissy and I met in Autumn of 1999 in a choir. Discoveries: "Sissy has a wonderful voice, Ákos can play the guitar..." Evidently we started to sing together some jazz/bossa nova tunes and the band "Yesterdays" was born. After three years of playing live / rehearsing, we decided to record a duet EP. With the help of our friend Bazsó Tibor we recorded the first EP called "A Whole Half" in one day... and at that time it seemed that it was only the ending of a period, but things just started to grow, we won the first prize at the Félsziget Festival 2004 and after Sissy's moving to England Ákos found some new members and recorded the first Yesterdays album "Holdfénykert" in 2006. Sissy and I stayed in touch and we are planning to record a very intimate and acoustic album together in 2008! Stay tuned for more information! :)"Fields of Gold" (Sting cover) played live and unplugged... (bootleg)
