“Laikarati” album of ethnomusic group “Ogas”
The clocks continue to turn, one traditional moment replacing the previous one. The nine-song album “Laikarati” of the ethnic group “Ogas” is dedicated to these important moments in our traditional culture.
Realizing that Christmas is near, the disc starts with songs dedicated to this time, but neither Easter, Michaelmas and Mārtiņi, nor St. John’s are left out.
One of the captains of “Ogu” is the captain of “Laimas muzykantu” Artūrs Uškāns, the main singers of the annual customs are Igeta Ozoliņa, Ilze Jurjāne-Lapkovska and Diānas Logina, while Dace Melbārde is a special guest. “Strong Wives” also features, and the whole thing sounds like a solid album of contemporary ethno music.
