With their high-energy blend of jazz, pop and funk, the Peet Project is one of Hungary’s internationally recognized young bands. They won the top prize in Jazzy Radio’s Song Contest in Budapest (2009) and have been regular performers at major jazz festivals both in the US and at home since 2013. They won “Debut Artist of the Year” (2013), “Album of the Year” (2017) and “Song of the Year” (2020) awards at Catalina Island JazzTrax, the longest running and most prestigious jazz festival in the US. In early 2021, they topped Canada's jazz radio chart, and they are the first Hungarian band to date who have made it to the Billboard Smooth Jazz Top 30 chart with four different songs. They played in a number of European countries (Spain, Switzerland, Malta, Slovakia, Romania among others) and are returning performers on the A38 stage.
Following up on their highly acclaimed US West Coast shows in October 2024, the band now brings the music of their latest studio album, Once Upon a Time to the A38 stage. The album has been voted #5 among the Top 10 albums of 2024 by the JazzTrax Radio Show, and three tracks off the record made it to the Top 40 contemporary jazz songs of 2024. Expect a healthy dosage of melodic funk, pop and high-energy jazz delivered with top notch musicianship.
