“I am super excited and surprised for recieving this award, because ” Es skrienu” was in the same nomination already last year. I thought the running process had slowed down a bit, but I was wrong. I’m happy that people still love this song, sing and dance to it, and request it on radio stations. I want to thank my listeners and all radio stations in Latvia for playing my music! Thanks a lot!“, says Lauris Reiniks.

Lauris Reiniks continues giving concerts in the Baltic states and works on the “Pasaka” song Dutch version “Zo’n Verhaal” promotion in the Netherlands. He also plays in a new musical called “Sūnu ciema zēni” (Moss Village Boys” produced by “Latvijas Koncerti” agency.
