From Riga comes one of the most energetic and stylistically free instrumental bands in the Baltics – Very Cool People. Blending elements of jazz, funk, rock, soul, hip-hop, and even rave, the band always surprises with originality and tireless energy.
For the past two years, concerts have been highlighted by the amazing Latvian talent Daniela Mase – a young singer with a unique voice that brings a fresh sound to Very Cool People. Alongside her, the band’s trombonist Laura Rozenberga, who has been performing as both an instrumentalist and vocalist with the group for years, will showcase her dynamic singing on stage.
Very Cool People have been performing regularly in Lithuania for many years, always drawing audiences that appreciate the band’s energy and musical freedom. This autumn, fans will also get the chance to hear their newest material, showcasing the group’s continuous creative growth.
“Baltic Unity Tour” dates:
- 14.09 – M/Darbnīca, Riga, Latvia
- 18.09 – Philly Joe’s, Tallinn, Estonia
- 19.09 – Jazz Cellar 11, Vilnius, Lithuania
- 20.09 – Vandenis, Lithuania
The tour is dedicated to Baltic Unity Day on September 22, celebrating the strong bond between Latvia and Lithuania, as well as the shared cultural space of all three Baltic states. That is why the band has chosen the symbolic name – “Baltic Unity Tour.”
Since their founding in 2007, Very Cool People have released 10 albums, collaborated with many well-known Latvian artists, and developed their unmistakable signature sound – virtuosic musicianship, powerful horn section, unexpected arrangements, and dose of humor.
The band themselves describe it simply: “a musical party without style boundaries.”
And the best way to experience it is live – in concerts where meeting Very Cool People means both top-class performance and an unforgettable good time.
