Bio

Our band “S.P.B.” was established in early autumn of 2006 and it happened quite accidentally.
Once Janis Aispurs (singer, piano and accoustic guitar) and Arturs Eglitis (keyboards and the second voice), for whom music was predestined, asked to be enclosed in a list of bands of a huge corporative event. More or less it was a joke, because by that moment we did’t have a band and songs. But by the way we promised, that we are capable of making a good performance.

To continue this journey, we had to accomplish our band. First one we asked to join was Ingars Vilums (bass player) and Ingars said YES. This was really good, because he was and is a very experienced musician. Afterwards Janis revealed the idea of making a band to his old classmate Normunds, who used to play guitar. He joined them as well. To be able to perform they had to find a drummer - and like a salvation came our drummer - Andris, who was suggested by Ingars, who knew the guy was one of the best drummers.

Ultimately we were ready to make some songs and to perform on the promised show. This show turned out to be our first little success. Afterwards we decided to try our luck on radio waves. By the end of 2006 we brought our song “Pearl tears” to Radio SWH, and shortly it was enclosed in to radio’s play list and TOP 20. By March 2007 it reached the top spot (Nr.1 !!!) of TOP20.

Inspired by the success of our first song, we once again presented another song to radio SWH named “Poet”. And we did’t have to wait for a long. In a couple of weeks our band once again reached the top spot and became the most listened and Nr.1 song of a month.

Our third single “Feeling behind” reached TOP3 spot in Radio SWH and various radio stations all across the Latvia. In 2007 (and BIG thank’s to platformamusic.lv) we made our debut in MTV: video of our first song “Pearl tears” was accepted by MTV Baltic and was broadcasted in all three Baltic countires - Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania. Our fourth single “The Moon” reached already TOP 1 position by june of 2008. Now we have finished our fifth song.. Another Day

In 2007 we participated in both leading music festivals on Latvia’s rock scene: “Baltic Beach Party” and “PositivusAB”.

At the present moment we are working in our studio for our first ever album and we are looking for new challenges

You will here from us soon!

Jānis Aišpurs / vocal

The first ‘master’ with a degree of Business Administration. He is the creative mastermind and voice of the band. For one year he even tried to get a deep insight in math and physics, but did not find what he was looking for. And it seems, it was for good, because for now he is all in to his music and graphic design.

Artūrs Eglītis / keyboards

our keyboard man, master of Latvian PR and master of Public administration as well. He has graduated Latvian University. And that’s a fact: likes to be ironical, but still – knows the red thin line between a good joke and an insult.

Ingars Vilums / bass

our engineer, bass player and co-producer as well. He is a graduate of Riga Technical University and thus becomes the most technical member of a band. And we are fairly sure – he is one of the best bass players on our coast. And as far as we know he is the most balanced and reasonable of them all.

Normunds Lukša / Guitar

Third of the ‘masters”, with a degree of Business administration and Economics. He is our guitar player and our biggest ‘Artist’, but by good means. Some say, he even looks like the third of Gallagher brothers…

Andris Buiķis / drums

Our drummer, most rhythmical member of the band. The story of pure genious begins here … he senses music from a half of a word or even a half of sound…. Being a drummer is not an occupation for him, it is his lifestyle. And that’s why he is one of the best Latvian drummers.
