Līvi pictures Līvi biography Līvi songs Līvi albums Līvi is a Latvian rock band from Liepāja, Latvia founded in 1976 by Ēriks Ķiģelis and Juris Pavītols. They started out as a pop-rock band but gradually shifted towards a heavier, western influenced hard rock. This guitar driven sound accompanied by lyrics written by some of the greatest Latvian poets became the band’s trademark and also one of the major reasons while they found little success in non-Latvian speaking countries. Since their formative years the band has gone through many lineup changes, most significantly after the death of their leader Ēriks Ķiģelis in 1985. Since then Ainars Virga has been on the forefront of Līvi creative output. To this day they have released eight studio albums and two live recordings. Current lineup consists: Mārtiņš Bērtulis - guitar / vocal (also currently Dons & others)|Jānis Grodums - bass guitar / vocal|Guntars Mucenieks - key boards / vocal|Vilnis Krieviņš - drums (also currently Leģions, The Hobos & Remix) www.livi.lv
