Miesto laboratorija gyvai: JAUSMĖ

Jausmė is a distinctive singer, composer, songwriter, performer and budding poet, one of the first to popularize the folk instrument, concert kankles, outside of Lithuania. As a visionary and pioneer of her craft, Jausmė explores the potential of the instrument in the context of contemporary music.
Drawing inspiration from nature, Lithuanian roots and folklore, she masterfully combines traditions and innovations, thus revealing the hitherto undiscovered possibilities of the instrument. The mission of Jausmė is to present kankles by sounding not only in the context of folklore, looking for new sounds and ways of sound extraction. The sound of feeling is an enchanting blend of traditional and contemporary music, reflecting a deep connection to the roots and the ability to translate it into a unique musical language.
In her compositions and songs, with a powerful, dynamic voice, twenty-nine strings, in Lithuanian and English, she weaves a cozy wide-mouth cover, decorated with elements of her favorite styles. The artist herself defines her sound as minimalistic post-folk. The music she creates has a calming, therapeutic effect where everyone can find a safe haven.
