Hungry Kids of Hungary

Brisbane’s Hungry Kids of Hungary have been busy at Albert’s Studios in Sydney recording their second album with producer Wayne Connolly (Josh Pyke, The Vines, You Am I, Silverchair), the follow-up for 2010’s much-acclaimed debut Escapades. The album, signed to Rough Trade in the Benelux, has experienced remarkable success in that region and paved the way for their first major international festival appearance at Pinkpop in the Netherlands earlier this month. The festival – also featuring Bruce Springsteen, The Cure, Soundgarden, The Wombats, The Hives, Miike Snow, Bombay Bicycle Club, Linkin Park, Mumford & Sons amongst many – also opened the door to a full European and UK tour that included the band’s first shows in the likes of Paris, Germany and Belgium. High fives all 'round, we think!
