Artist History
The 12 Bajores is a group of Lithuanian baronesses
that truly love their mother country and the fantastic
culture that being Lithuanian provides. It truly is
a very special community that relies on each other
for support during the good times and the bad.
The 12 Bajores get together to sing which is a very
popular Lithuanian pastime. This group of Lithuanian
baronesses wants to share their culture and good
times with anyone who wants to partake of these
goodies.
These Lithuanian folk songs have handed down the legends and stories throughout the ages and are still sung with much gusto at the many Lithuanian bonfires held each year around the world. They discuss new loves, lost loves, war, motherhood, grand-motherhood, loyalty, honesty, and friendship all with frequent reference to the beautiful land of Lithuania. These songs were recorded by a group of old-time Lithuanian baronesses sitting around an actual campfire. Some verses of these songs, specifically “Stoviu As Parimus” which makes us misty-eyed every time we sing it, were rewritten by our members for modern times, although the content most likely transcends the ages.
For those of you who know these songs, this album certainly brings back the memories, the friends, and the songs. Sing along anytime – when friends are over, while driving, when with family. These songs will bring a group together anytime, anywhere!!! Sit back, close your eyes, and imagine yourself sitting around a large crackling bonfire happily singing with your friends surrounding you.
The Twelve Bajores decided to put these songs on www.mp3.com because we truly love the fine art of singing, laughing, and enjoying oneself. Lithuanians have a unique habit of singing whenever two or more of them get together. Well, OK some of us even sing aloud when we are alone. We have a lot of fun doing this, and we hope that we can spread that fun to you as well. Singing these songs is truly a great past-time! Enjoy!!
These recordings were first made into a CD for the baronesses to listen to when they are not together. Now this CD has been placed on mp3.com for the baronesses’ friends to listen, download, and enjoy on their own, and for everyone else who happens to stumble across this site. If you like these songs, please download them. We hope that you have as much fun with these songs as we do! Enjoy!!
Enjoy! |
