Latvian Indie-Pop Group Galerijas Releases Second Single Kad Tervis Te Nav

Latvian indie-pop group Galerijas released their second single, “Kad Tervis Te Nav,” on Wednesday, October 28, 2026, across all major music streaming platforms. The track combines modern pop and indie-pop elements, focusing on the longing for a close person and the daily impact of their absence. Produced in collaboration with indie electronics duo Bel Tempo member Andis Ansons, the release marks the next stage in the young group’s musical development. “Kad tevis te nav” is the second single by Galerijas following their debut song “Nogrimt vasarā,” which came out in August of this year.

Creative Camp Origins and Producer Collaboration

The song took shape during a creative writing retreat in the Latvian countryside at the end of August 2026, where the musicians worked on new sound material and together sought the future direction for their sound. After developing initial demo tracks, the band sent them to producer Andis Ansons, because they had wanted to start a collaboration with him for some time. Ansons handled the production, mixing, and mastering for the track. According to the band’s statement reported by lasi.lv, For the band “Galerijas”, this was an opportunity to develop the song together with the producer and look at its sound outside of their usual work environment.
