“Life goes on” has come out with quite a psychedelic buzz – it has had a big CD release party in the Hangar49 in Berlin on May 24th. For me, “just a girl with guitar from Eastern Europe,” the album turned out to be a momentum of all the things unsaid, a story of moving abroad, a cry-your-heart-out type of collection for self-therapy.

Valerija Kravale
Valerija Kravale is just a girl with guitar from Latvia. Her music is a crossroads of post-soviet thematic lyrics and deep atmospheric guitar sounds.
She went a bit crazy and hitchhiked through Europe and played on the streets in 2017 all by herself – that’s when she realized music helps her to communicate. After 30 traveled countries, her sound went to a sort of psychedelic version of indie, that, when performed live, is accompanied by an audio-visual show. Valerija is researching her Eastern mentality through sounds that “don’t make sense as anything in life,” as she recalls herself.
Her first EP (“STUCK IN MELANCHOLY”) has been released at the end of the same year after moving to The Netherlands in 2017. Following, she has done a small EU tour (6 countries) and moved to Berlin for new challenges.
