Gustave Tiger are a Hungarian art punk band formed in 2013. Their debut EP Mitanni Mares was released the same year, followed by the first full length album At The Idyll’s End, out internationally on 18th December on iTunes, Spotify, Deezer and more. The band’s releases received outstanding reviews locally and internationally, earning their song Sister Sybarite a feature on the Rough Trade compilation Counter Culture 15 in 2015.

The band is working on their new album to be released in mid-2016. The first video off the new album, Mermaid is so far the shortest, fastest Gustave Tiger video.

Starting off as a power trio with Peter Mezősi on drums, Csaba Szabó on bass, vocals, and Gergő Dorozsmai on guitar, vocals, Gustave Tiger were soon joined by the brilliant young singer Erika Szurcsik to complete the line-up that created the pop sensibility infused psychedelic punk rock vision of At The Idyllʼs End. New drummer Dávid Fekete and bassist Márton Hó joined the band in 2015.

In 2015 Gustave Tiger went on the road with At The Idyll’s End, giving an official showcase at SXSW 2015 in Austin, TX, and also performing in Los Angeles, San Antonio, London, Berlin, Vienna, Warsaw amongst others.

Opening for acts like The Crystal Stilts (USA), Jack Of Heart (F), Vagina Town (F), Animal Bodies (CAN), Tellus Children (SE), Rakta (BRA) Gustave Tiger have swiftly built up a following in their hometown of Budapest.
