Mario Batkovic is a composer for film and game scores He is signed to Invada Records (UK) as a solo accordion artist, a label founded by Geoff Barrow (Portishead). 

His debut solo album received widespread critical acclaim, with Rolling Stone magazine listing it in the top 10 avant-garde albums of 2017. Batkovic tours consistently, playing festivals such as Bushfire (South Africa), Supersonic (UK), Le Guess Who (NL) and the Montreux Jazz Festival. 

Mario Batkovic released his new album ‘INTROSPECTIO’ in December 2021 via Invada Records (UK) to widespread critical acclaim.

Batkovic’s mission is to explore the sonic possibilities of the accordion, without effects or loops, rather through a mutualist symbiotic relationship between man and instrument. Challenging, hypnotic, and grandiose; Batkovic’s single-handed symphonic vision is certainly unique.
