The Moon & The Nightspirit is a Hungarian duo immersed in the realms of mythic folk and pagan music, bringing a lush embracement of nature’s enchanting mysteries to their listeners. Formed in 2003 by Ágnes Tóth and Mihály Szabó, their artistry revolves around a core of ethereal vocals, strings and various traditional instruments that exude the spiritual essence of old-world folklore. They are known for their use of their native Hungarian language, which adds an extra layer of authenticity and mystique to their work, creating a soundscape that feels both ancient and timelessly enthralling.

Over time, The Moon & The Nightspirit have garnered a dedicated following within the neo-folk and world music circles with their melodically rich and spiritually infused compositions. Albums like "Ősforras" and "Rego Rejtem" delve deep into the heart of their cultural heritage, while later works such as "Metanoia" and "Aether" see the band evolving their sound to intertwine their deep, narrative-driven musicality with broader, more universal themes of human existence and consciousness. Their music serves as a conduit to a forgotten era, brimming with the lore and the allure of nature's hidden realms, inviting listeners to embark on an introspective journey guided by their haunting melodies and rhythmic folk cadences.
