- Līvi is a Latvian hard rock band, that was influential in forming the Latvian rock music culture. Their signatures are poetic lyrics and guitar solos. The band debuted in 1976, when it was founded in Liepāja by Ēriks Ķiģelis and Juris Pavītols. They started out as a pop-rock band and played in various gigs around Latvia, whilst trying to find their own specific style. Thus the period of 1977-1985 was largely a chaotic time in the group’s music – it varied from pretty pop to heavy rock. But one thing never changed – their anti-soviet propaganda, their patriotism and their monumentalism. After the death of Līvi leader Ēriks Ķiģelis in 1986, Ainars Virga joined the band, thus starting a new era – the era of anthemic ballads, hard hitting heavy rock tunes and rebellious philosophy. Virga composed some of the best-known Latvian hard rock songs. Līvi have recorded a total of 9 albums. The band’s songs include "Dzimtā valoda", "Dzelsgriezējs", "Meitene zeltene", "Saldus saule", "Piedod man", "Zīlīte", "Tikai tev un man" and "Pāri visam".
- Līvi (les Live) est le nom du groupe letton mené par Ēriks Ķiģelis puis Ainars Virga et particulièrement célèbre durant les années 1980. Le groupe est formé en 1976 à Liepaja sous l'étiquette d'un groupe pop rock qu'il abandonnera assez vite pour se placer plutôt dans le hard rock. Ils sont très vite nommé comme les Deep purple ou les Led Zeppelin letton. L'époque Ķiģelis est marquée par un anti-sovietisme affiché qui leur vaudra d'être banni de scène par le régime soviétique en 1981. Après un concert, Ēriks Ķiģelis trouve la mort dans un accident de voiture. Ainars Virga reprend le groupe en main mais les succès se font plus commerciaux.
