"Rīgas Modes" Releases Song "Everybody Hurts" Ahead of Their "Palladium" Concert

The band "Rīgas Modes", preparing for their biggest concert to date at "Palladium Rīga", which will take place this spring on April 25, has released a new single and music video.

The new song is titled "Everybody Hurts"—although the name is the same as the R.E.M. hit, it is not directly related to it. "Rīgas Modes" describes their new single as an ode to the "Madchester" movement of the late 1980s when indie music in northern England was fused with the then-popular house and other dance music rhythms.

"We always like to experiment with new or well-forgotten elements in music as an art form. Whether it's a rhythmic pattern less heard in this part of the world or flirting with the English language. Does this really mean that we are ready to conquer the global market and sign a contract with a major music conglomerate? There's no clear answer to that yet, but if a limousine pulls up by our rehearsal space and we are handed a suitcase full of dollar bills worth at least seven figures, we will consider such an opportunity," the band members say with self-irony.

A music video has been created for the new single, directed by Dree, with contributions from Andrejs Skurjats, Didzis Starastins, and Mikus Svikulis. The band gives special thanks to the Latvian Academy of Culture.

"Rīgas Modes" will perform this song, along with other new tracks and their greatest hits, at their biggest solo concert to date, happening on April 25 at "Palladium".

"There will be champagne, glamour, beautiful people, various surprises, and we hope that you will be there too! It will be a special evening, one that is only possible with 'Rīgas Modes'," the band invites listeners.

Tickets can be purchased at "Biļešu Serviss" ticket offices and online

As the concert approaches, ticket prices will increase.
