With each successive release, the world of the Budapest-based trio bandseems to become
exponentially larger and encompass an ever-expanding range of vibrant and startling influences.
More than anything, their music reflects a core drive to explore traditions and ideas from far-flung
corners of the world, returning with a vital and pulse-quickening sound accented by countless
disparate influences yet singularly possessing its own boldly uncategorizable voice.
By pushing their instruments to new limits, the members push their entranced audiences from the
constantly flowing present into the future. The band opens minds with their clean, open approach and
spirited improvisation, always pushing each other and the limits of the composition, but never allowing
the structure to fall apart.
Blending elements of world music, experimental jazz and rock, a vast variety of progressive and
traditional musics, bleeding-edge electronica and ancient folk, it is an exhilarating sum even more
profound and pulse-quickening than its already brilliant parts.

Jü, formed in 2012, has become, by now, one of the most exciting avant jazz acts on the Hungarian
music scene.
