Margaret Island

**Margaret Island** is a Hungarian indie rock/pop band that's become a staple of Budapest's vibrant music scene since forming around 2015. Named after Margitsziget (Margaret Island), the iconic park island in the Danube River, the group—fronted by Márk Áron Eredics, with bandmates Nagy Áron and Kovács Márton—mixes moody post-punk vibes, catchy melodies, and poetic Hungarian lyrics that often explore introspection and urban life. Known for their dynamic live shows and genre-blurring sound, they broke through with their 2016 debut *Túl a Maslin-hegyen* and have steadily built a loyal following with releases like *Kés hegyén* and *Rámszakadt*, balancing raw energy with lyrical depth. Their recent tracks, including the anthemic *Szombat* and brooding *Hol Marad Az Én Történetem*, keep cementing their reputation as one of Hungary’s most compelling alt-rock acts.
