Madara Fogelmane, the founder of the group, confidently announced herself in Latvian music four years ago, winning the honorable third place in the national selection of the Eurovision song contest with the song “Esamišta”.
Madara created the band named after himself two years ago, joining musical forces with Erna Daugavieti and Undini Adeli Berg. Cooperation was also started with the well-known cellist, leader of the group “DaGamba” Valter Puci, who also works as a producer and under whose leadership the colorful trio “Madara” single “Es esmu viss” was created last year.
The new song “Mežos sauc” was also created in collaboration with Valter Puči, but the author of the music and lyrics is Madara Fogelmane.
“The song was written several years ago when I lived in the Netherlands, but when I returned to Latvia, I gave it a new sound and also rewrote the lyrics in Latvian. The song tells about the roots of the ancestors and the path of the heart that leads to nature, in the very essence of man. Living away from home and longing for it, I felt the connection with Latvia, right in the forest.
I think I am not the only one who associates Latvia with forests and natural beauty. Latvians live in a deep connection with the natural treasures given to us. That’s why I wrote the song, which is like a hymn to our forests and a tribute to Latvian nature,” says Madara.
