Edda Művek is a successful Hungarian rock band formed in 1973 initially under the name Griff.
Undergoing a brief name change to Edda, the band finally settled for Edda Művek shortly thereafter. The name Edda was inspired by the Prose Edda of Norse Mythology while the word, Művek (works), is a symbolic reference to the band originally starting its career in the industrial city of Miskolc, also dubbed as the Steel City. According to frontman,
Pataky Attila, Művek has also come to represent the band’s labor intensive work ethic and prolific approach to songwriting, recording and touring.
