A new co-track with Sandris Savickis / Starring Two has been released – Jērs (Lamb). Vocals were recorded back in 2012, and now the Lamb has risen. Support the Lamb at Radio NABA Top 10 LV.

New collaboration: Kaspars Tobis (7 Synths) & Kalvis Kluburs.

Unfortunately, STandART concert in Liepāja on March 10 is postponed. We apologize for any inconvenience and hope that we will be able to announce a new date soon.

You can support STandART “Kolka” by voting at Radio NABA LV Top 10.

We are also going to play a number of concerts in the nearest future with a third member in our lineup – Jānis Traviņš (known from the band “Marta Migla”).

Original versions of “Kolka” appear on the album “Jūrasputnu Mistērijas” (Mysteries Of The Seabirds) released by “Naba Music / Melo Records”.

“Jūrasputnu Mistērijas” / “Mysteries Of The Seabirds” now available on our Bandcamp site – Latvian & English versions separately (with photos and lyrics) – and on other digital platforms.

New single Rūnas (Runes) is out now on our Bandcamp page. Taken from our upcoming 3rd album Jūrasputnu Mistērijas (Mysteries Of The Seabirds) to be released by Naba Music/Melo Records at the beginning of June. The album was recorded from 2013 to 2017 with the line-up: Kalvis Kluburs, Mārtiņš Links & friends. Technical assistance came from studio masters – Sandris Savickis (Starring Two, Jūrmala), Kaspars Tobis (7 Synths, Dzelzs vilks, Sigulda) and Kaspars Bārbals (Lauska, Rīga).

The new album can be described as dark and atmospheric synthfolk. It has been created almost like a fairy-tale or as a soundtrack to a book – Mysteries by the Norwegian author Knut Hamsun (1892) – and our own summer night hikes along the sea. We are going to present the new material as a duo (Kalvis & Mārtiņš) at a couple of album release gigs. These are going to be the first STandART live performances in four years.

June 1, 2017 – Nabaklab, Riga, LV (Guests: Marta Migla)
June 3, 2017 – Mala, Cēsis, LV (Guests: Marta Migla)

New!!! June 17, 2017 – DM Bar Riga, LV

August 4–5, 2017 – Laba Daba 2017 (festival), Ratnieki, Līgatne, LV

Keep an eye on our websites for further details. A mysterious June to you!

Our Estonian friends Forgotten Sunrise have released a magic new USB maxi-single “Dusturn”. It contains two remixes under STandART name:
