Tamás István Berki (born 16 May 1946) is a Hungarian singer, songwriter, guitarist, drummer, television personality and teacher.

From 1969 to 1972, Berki mastered the nuances of jazz music at the Béla Bartók Conservatory, under the guidance of the likes of János Gonda and György Vukán.

[4][8] This was followed by another album in 2009, entitled "Bika Jam", which dealt with the singer's birth and the experiences of his family during the Second World War.

[10] At the end of 2023, Berki released a novel studio album titled "Hintaló", which dealt with themes of nostalgia and reflection as the singer examined his life through his music.
