The band started to play authentic folk music from Gyimes and Moldova. They became Young Masters of Folk Art in 1998 ? Award of the Ministry of National Cultural Heritage. After that period they discovered and accepted the effects of other music genres. In this way Kerekes could create a brand new, free-style performance of this basically lively folk music. Although the group could be considered a world music act, the musicians prefer the term Ethno-funk. There are influences from the freedom of jazz, the explosive rhythm of funk, the melodiousness of Balkan music and the pure beauty of folk in it. Their original concerts appeal to a wide audience. The performances of Kerekes at The Academy of Music, in the Budapest Arena, at the Millen?ris Park, at Kal?ka Folk Festival or at the 3rd CIOFF World Folkloriada, and other concerts were all very popular. They are frequently invited to foreign countries like Sweden, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Poland or Russia.
