Festileaks Interview: Apey and the Pea, winners of Nagy-Szín-Pad 2018
On 27th June at VOLT Festival, the first slot on Telekom Main Stage said: winner of Nagy-Szín-Pad 2018: Apey and the Pea. For many the question comes up: what is Nagy-Szín-Pad? Nagy-Szín-Pad (Main Stage) is a Hungarian competition based on invitations. Producers, journalists, concerts organizers around the country suggest hundreds of acts who have achieved amazing results all by themselves: sold out club shows, high number of views on Youtube or being played on radio. Out of all these recommendations, a circle of professionals choose 8 acts to take part in the competition. The winner of Nagy-Szín-Pad 2018 is playing on the main stage of Sziget, VOLT, Strand and Campus festivals in Hungary. This year the winner is Hungarian stoner-doom metal Apey and the Pea, and after their concert at VOLT Festival we sat down with guitarist-vocalist András Áron “Apey”, and bass guitarist Zoltán Prepelicza for an interview about Nagy-Szín-Pad, their current summer tour, festivals and future plans.
