Kumm is a Romanian alternative rock band formed in Cluj-Napoca, Cluj County, Romania in 1997. The band has experienced several line-up changes, with guitarist Eugen Nuțescu and keyboardist Kovács András being the only remaining members from the first line-up. Their style has varied greatly over the passing of time, ranging from progressive rock with jazz and etno influences to alternative rock and indie rock (most notably after the release of their fourth studio album released in 2006, more specifically Different Parties).
In addition to their native Romania, Kumm toured in countries like Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, and Hungary. They were also included in the line-up of several European festivals, such as Pepsi Sziget (in 2002 and 2008), Sárvár, 4+4 Days In Motion and Peninsula. As of February 2014, Kumm released six studio albums and eight videos.
