Kazimieras Likša to Open for Hurts in Kaunas

British electronic music duo Hurts is set to perform in Kaunas, Lithuania, for the first time on July 7 at Dainų slėnis. Lithuanian musician Kazimieras Likša has been chosen to open the show.

Likša, a singer-songwriter with over 15 years of experience, began his solo career in 2015 after fronting the band Karma. He describes music as a diary of his experiences, acknowledging the challenges of self-doubt and fear but emphasizing the joy it brings him. "This path is not easy. It is full of doubts, self-criticism, and fears. At the same time, it is the only path that still brings me so much happiness," Likša stated. He expressed deep gratitude to his fans, whose support allows him to continue creating and performing.

This path is not easy. It is full of doubts, self-criticism, and fears. At the same time, it is the only path that still brings me so much happiness. I am very grateful to everyone who listens to my music, comes to concerts, waits for new works, writes letters, gives advice. You are the ones who allow me to create music and be on stage.

For Likša, opening for Hurts is a significant honor, as their music has been a personal soundtrack. "It is a great honor for me to open for this band. Their song 'Help' often played in my daily playlist," he shared. He admires Hurts' sound and lyrical depth, believing their music creates a strong connection with listeners. "I believe their concert will be very emotionally powerful. I certainly cannot and do not want to hide my joy that I will be able to step onto the same stage with them," Likša added.
