Carnival Youth

Formed in 2011, the Latvian band Carnival Youth is known mostly for their indie and neo-folk performances. Their experimental music is an artful fusion of the ascetics of folk music and the elements of modern instrumental rhythm, without drawing strict lines between the do’s and don’ts of the band’s creative writing process. Carnival Youth’s edgy lyrics and added special effects reveal the full spectrum of the band’s ideal musical formula. The band’s lineup has been forming gradually – the brothers Emīls and Edgars along with their classmate Robert first formed the band to play for their own enjoyment. After nine months Carnival Youth played their first gig and acquired their fourth member - the base guitarist Alex, who became a steadying influence and also a musical innovator.
