{{eastern name order|Kovács Ákos}}Ákos Kovács (born in Budapest, 6 April 1968) is a Hungarian pop-rock singer-songwriter. He is known for his solo career writing and performing serious, poetic pop songs, as well as a member of the now defunct group Bonanza Banzai. Kovács uses his given name, Ákos, in his career. His name is written Akosh, to reflect the Hungarian pronunciation, when his music is distributed to English-speaking countries. His songs are on the top lists of Hungarian music.[1]Personal lifeKovács grew up in a family of lawyers. A member of the Pier Paolo Pasolini film club, he aspired to be a film director, but his mother strictly forbade this. As a compromise, he attended the Corvinus University of Budapest and graduated in 1992 with a degree in foreign trade. In addition to Hungarian, he speaks English and Italian. He is politically conservative. He is married to Krisztina Őry, and they have four children: Kata, Marci, Anna and Julia. CareerKovács has been involved in many musical projects. He was a member of the Hungarian band Bonanza Banzai, which split in 1995. In 1999, he translated Phil Collins's songs for the Disney film Tarzan into Hungarian. In addition to music, Kovács also writes poetry. He is the first Hungarian musician to have prepared a Blu-ray publication, namely the video and audio footage recorded during the 29 stations of the 40+ tour. The high quality of this publication is characterized by the fact that even the extras will be presented in high-definition. It is expected to be released in November 2009. After the release, he will take a few months break and will focus on the new songs for his upcoming album. Discography- 1993 - Karcolatok
