This album is the third phase of Sen Svaja life — three Lituanian female folk singers go across new horizons of endurance, worry, radiance and joy. In this experimental post-folk singing cycle, created in dark and surreal years of pandemia, they weave together polyphonic sutartinės motifs with the poetry of Vladas Braziūnas, and combine folk songs with the recitation of folk tales. So the whole sounding gets a bit psychedelic and gloomy, as ancient fairytales are...

"We are three women going though our transformations, through birth, through death, through change. We move through joy, sadness, or hardship, and sometimes we skip around happily as if in dance" — they wrote inside the album.

On "Eisim sesės" Sen Svaja tend to grasp the very point of transition, when the previous state is not yet complete and the new form is just being born. At this point we usually encounter fear as a guardian or threshold. To step into our new selves, we must also step over this threshold. Come on, sisters! Let’s go!

SEN SVAJA — sen swajjais (old Prussian) — with your own.
