Career

Szakácsi in 1991

Hun rose to fame in Hungary and its surrounding areas with his band C.A.F.B. following the success of their 1997 album "Zanza" which launched the group into the country's mainstream. Despite its success the band was unable to work together due to Gabor Hun's drug related problems. He has left the country after the recording sessions of their 1999 album and formed Sledgeback years later in Seattle. Szakácsi, known for founding the Seattle-based punk rock band Sledgeback, established several new musical projects in the region during the mid-2010s. Most notably, he co-founded the bands Classless Action and The Scoffs, collaborating with musicians from other established local punk rock groups.
