Vėlių Namai

**Vėlių Namai** is a Lithuanian folk project steeped in Baltic traditions, weaving haunting melodies and ancient folklore into atmospheric soundscapes. Their name translates to "House of Souls," reflecting their deep connection to ancestral heritage and nature-centric themes. Blowing new life into archaic instruments like the *kanklės* (zither) and *skudučiai* (wooden panpipes), their music evokes misty forests, pagan rituals, and the timeless mysticism of Baltic mythology. Tracks like *Alkai* and *Kúrir* showcase their signature blend of drone-like textures, ritual chants, and earthy percussion, often drawing inspiration from pre-Christian Baltic spirituality. While shrouded in artistic anonymity, their work has become a cornerstone of Lithuania’s contemporary folk revival, resonating with listeners who crave a raw, meditative link to the past.
