Chronology


Zoltán was born on January 10, 1972, in Budapest, Hungary. Even as child, he was more interested in music than most of his friends. His first significant musical experience was hearing Kiss' Lick it up album. After listening to the album, he decided that he wanted to do more than just listen to rock music. In 1988, soon after he started learning to play the guitar, he formed his first (and for a long time only) band: Belfegor. Their success was varied. They released one cassette, but after several years together the eight musicians decided to split. Following this, Zoltán played in several bands and started work on developing his singing skills. After a while, he laid his guitar down and concentrated only on singing. From the beginning of 1999, for a year and a half he was the lead singer in Classica. Following that he sang in several bands simultaneously. He agreed to join NEMESIS in February 2001 and has been a member of the band ever since.
