Pflum Orsi & The CAP was established at the beginning of 2003 with the aim of creating a performance that is based on the elements of jazz, funky and soul music. The members of the band want to interpret their music and get it to the audience in a unique approach of music spicing it with their own ideas and personalities.

Playing good music it is very important to the band and also to have qualified and talented musicians who are all well-known and recognized in Hungary. The band gives concerts in clubs and at concert halls, taking part in festivals in Hungary and abroad. All the members of the group graduated at the jazz department of Liszt Ferenc Music Academy. Each musician has performed on several albums and played in different bands with other significant and famous Hungarian musicians.

The name of the band CAP refers to the character and sense of humour of the singer. Where does the name come from? CAP means "baseball cap". Caps are worn by the members of the group with pleasure. But it has a different meaning as a mosaic word. It means Contemporary Art Pop. It gives the idea that the music is passionate, tempting and of a high standard among the very simple and plain music heared nowdays. In their performance the energetic and pulsating power is combined with sensitivity and the greatest ease. The band plays its own songs and the pieces of such performers as Hiram Bullock, Rachelle Ferrell, Patti Austin, Maceo Parker, Randy Brecker, Sting, George Duke, Brand New Heavies..... The performances are in "Orsi" style. She is a very kind and sincere but determined young girl. Although she disarms everybody with her informality, dynamic power comes from her personality and her engaging eyes.

Orsolya Pflum - vocal
István Elek - saxophone
Viktor Bori - piano, keyboard
Miklós Birta - guitar
Balázs Szendőfi - bassguitar
Peter Szendőri - drums
