30Y is a Hungarian alternative rock band hailing from Szombathely, formed in the late 1990s by frontman Zoltán Beck and his fellow musicians. The name "30Y" does not carry any deep meaning; as the story goes, it was just a random code they spotted on a tram ticket. Over the years, they have become known for their introspective lyrics, distinctive melodies, and the heartfelt, raspy voice of Beck, which together create a unique brand of Hungarian rock music infused with a touch of melancholy.

Throughout their career, 30Y has maintained a significant presence in the Hungarian music scene. Their catalog showcases a diversity of musical styles and emotive songwriting, with a discography that has evolved while still retaining the core elements that define their sound. Pieces such as "X," "alkalmi társ," and "arra indulok el" illustrate the band's ability to meld atmospheric soundscapes with poetic Hungarian lyrics, resonating with audiences across generations. With both energetic numbers and more soulful tracks like "Resti" and "Ki Az Akit Még Megölelnél," they demonstrate a balance that has garnered them a dedicated fanbase. Their commitment to their craft is evident in their live performances, including the compelling "EGY (Live)," which captures the essence of 30Y's synergy on stage, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those who experience their music live.
