We’ve had so many photos taken at the Utcazene Festival in Veszprém, Hungary that I finally got myself to upload some fresh content to the Gallery. I’ve had some of these photos published on my Facebook page already, so you might have seen them.

Nevertheless, they’re here now, so check them out!

I would like to thank Endre-Szász Révai and Filius István for taking these shots and letting me use them. (I’ve noted the author of each photo below the embedded images so there would be no confusion regarding as to who took which shot.)

Here’s a list of all the musicians that I follow on Twitter. Some of them aren’t very active, so I provided a short description to let you know what to expect.

Amanda Palmer
Oh, she’s tweeting the hell out of Twitter. She’s one of the coolest ones out there, so follow her no matter what!

Beirut
The guys from Beirut sometimes tune in and they do reply from time to time to @mentions as well.

Bon Iver
I think someone else is running this account for Bon Iver but it is fun to follow nevertheless. Plus you get all the yummy info via Twitter. Can’t beat that!

David Gray
Run by the www.DavidGray.com team! They actually specify that, so you don’t get the wrong idea. He’s such a gentleman.

The Bowerbirds
They are definitely worth following. They write their own tweets and they are very fun.

Bright Eyes
Mostly tour dates and promotional tweets from the band.

Fleet Foxes
I am quite sure it is them tweeting. And they are fun!

Iron & Wine
Tour dates and releases and other official stuff. Looks like Sam doesn’t like tweeting.

Jason Webley
Jason is quite active on Twitter. And he is also a cool musician, so I definitely recommend following.

Joseph Arthur
I see him tweet from time to time. I really think that is him.

Joe Purdy
Mostly promotion on Joe’s behalf – it would be nice to actually have him from time to time though.

Katie Melua
Not much going on on Katie’s Twitter feed. I really hope she will start using it soon.

Mumford & Sons
Mostly official stuff. Not much about their private lives on here, but they do reply to @mentions from time to time.

Norah Jones
Norah doesn’t like to tweet. I heard her say that in an interview once. She also said that her record company keeps trying to convince her to start. Hope they succeed.

The Low Anthem
I am not sure if it is them running this, but I like their music, so I am following for the info anyway.

Tom Waits
Official stuff. I don’t think Tom himself ever tweets… unfortunately.

And if you’ve made it this far, I wouldn’t mind if you would started following Indie Folker on Twitter as well. Thanks!

If you’ve been paying attention at all this year, you will know that we’ve attended the “Utcazene” Street Music Festival in Veszpém, Hungary this year. And by “WE” I mean myself and my girlfriend, Kinga, (you might know her as the creator of Liszto, our beloved webcomic) who has been kind enough to learn all of my repertoire in a just a few weeks.

First of all, we looked like this:

She accompanied me on all sorts of improvised instruments and also sang backing vocals on a few songs. And it was all great!

We also had some good friends from Austria drop by to catch our last performance and take these cool looking photos (not to mention: spread the word about the show on twitter and other social platforms once they got home – so thumbs up for that).

And the result:

(…we’ve made some cool new friends who bought us this delicious watermelon and came to all of our shows…)

All in all it, was a fun time, we’ve met some great people and we’ve seen some great bands perform. Hope to be attending Veszprém Utcazene Fesztivál in 2012 again, but there’s a lot to be done in the meantime.

Fist of all, in the next few months I will be producing my new album as well as preparing for another street music festival that will be held in September here in Transylvania.

…and I am thinking about taking a band with me this time…
