Lajkó Félix was born in 1974 in Bačka Topola (Hungarian: Topolya, Serbian: Бачка Топола), a city in the multi-ethnic and multicultural Vojvodina region of present-day Serbia. Lajkó left the music high school in Subotica in the 10th grade to go to Budapest with a borrowed violin and became a member of the Dresch Quartet. Since then he has commuted between Budapest and Subotica, representing and culturally connecting Hungary and his native Vojvodina region.

Often called the Devil's Fiddler or wonder child, once he's on stage with an instrument – ​​whether it's a violin or a zither – Lajkó is capable of doing anything and leading his audience into a world that only opens up to those born with a special talent. No matter what he tries to do or who joins him on stage, the end result is always an instinctive and visceral musical blend.

„My music is essentially based on the sensitivity and variability of my instrument. I don't play so-called new style music; I just have my way of improvising and composing. I don't differentiate between musical styles and trends; I play both folk, classical, rock, blues, jazz and improvised songs. At the moment I would describe my music as sentimental metal.”

Lajkó has performed with a large number of well-known bands and musicians, such as the famous Romanian violinist Alexander Bălănescu or the band Vołosi from Poland. His music captivated audiences in Tokyo, Amsterdam, Berlin, Bratislava, Prague, Budapest, Brasov, Belgrade, Sarajevo, Ljubljana, Frankfurt, Lyon, Bordeaux, Venice, Verona, Edinburgh, London, Tallinn, Munich, Vienna or New York.
