The American Latvian Association, in collaboration with local Latvian community centers across the United States, is proud to present an extraordinary concert tour featuring Shipsea, the acclaimed musical project of Latvian artist Jānis Šipkēvics.

Joining Šipkēvics on stage will be a talented ensemble of musicians—Miķelis Putniņš, Kārlis Josts, and Una Daniela—who will share the rich musical heritage of Latvia through dynamic live performances.
