Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is no stranger to controversy. From his less than subtle views on subjects ranging from immigration to the homeless, he has been on the receiving end of a fair share of finger pointing.

Marc Collin founder of Nouvelle Vague after a decade of success started a new project, in which instead of the new wave of the eighties he focuses on the nineties. As it turns out from the name Bristol, he dedicates it to the greatest trip-hop legends, like Massive Attack, Tricky, Portishead and Morcheeba, and gives them a new life mingled with elegant cool jazz and the moods of the films from the sixties. The first Budapest concert of the Nouvelle Vague was on the Ship, so logically Bristol will present its music at ours as well.
