~Influences~
Nerijus Glezekas grew up listening to his father's vinyl collection which mainly consisted of various blues artists, Howlin' Wolf, Taj Mahal and Creedence Clearwater Revival. Blues naturally came into his life. Later on, his musical preference included artists like Tommy Castro and Keb' Mo'. Glezekas doesn't listen to rock music in excess because it intervenes with his style of writing the original music. One band that he always turns to is Dream Theater- it's ballads like Through Her Eyes, Hollow Years and many more do their therapeutic magic and build emotional strength.
“Nerijus’ mission is to disrupt everyday life, to touch our hearts and souls with music and meaningful lyrics so we get emotionally involved in our physical life.”
