Can you propose me some Lithuanian artists or bands of nice music, not hard rock, not metal please? Perhaps you already have done this in this thread but I cannot search all 50 pages.
Thanks

There are not many ways to get Lithuanian music abroad. The two shops, I usually buy music in, are
http://www.patogupirkti.lt/catalog/browse.asp?theme=T05
and
http://www.balticshop.com
(The latter is more expensive, order is via USA.)
We seem to have the same taste of music.
I very much like the group "Tabasco":
http://www.balticshop.com/item.msql?item=10846&cat=0523&title=Lithuanian_Pop_Music_R-Z
It's easy listening pop, nice speedy melodies.
They have only one album for sale as far as I know.
A MUST HAVE is something of the number one musician
Andrius Mamontovas, e.g.
BERIBIAM DANGUJE
http://www.balticshop.com/item.msql?item=10295&cat=0521&title=Lithuanian_Pop_Music_A-G
or the short album
http://www.balticshop.com/item.msql?item=10310&cat=0521&title=Lithuanian_Pop_Music_A-G
in duett with popular female pop singer Atlanta
or
http://www.balticshop.com/item.msql?item=2341&cat=0521&title=Lithuanian_Pop_Music_A-G
He has many styles: melancholic songs, pop, mixed with rock elements but also produces instrumental music - the instrumental music is not everybody's taste - I like it (Album "Tyla"). We discussed him a lot earlier in this forum.
Another nice group is Bavarija
e.g. albums Labai or spalvotas
I very much recommend this album:
http://www.patogupirkti.lt/book/book.asp?ISBN=ZZCD011
Žilvinas Žvagulis - Ramiai
very nice artist with nice pop songs.
One album does not get out of my mind:
http://www.patogupirkti.lt/book/book.asp?ISBN=79309
Inga Valinskienė - Būk šalia
This lady sings nice speedy pop with latin elements.
Finally, a very popular singer is
Geltona - Geriausios dainos
http://www.patogupirkti.lt/book/book.asp?ISBN=MD046-246
Also check out those Artists:
Jurga - Aukso pieva
Aktorių trio - Vėl kartu
Delfinai - Kai tu šalia
There are so many other good artists. I recommend to start with those stated. You can ask for more if you tried them.
Although there are many albums online I recommend to support those artists and buy originals. The prices in Patogupirkti - shop are fair and the service reliable. I get 90 % of my albums from there. Albums they don't have I buy from Balticshop.
Just a remark: I don't get any commission from these shops. There are simply not that many shops where you can buy those albums with English support available.
