“I believe that I am approaching my peak as a songwriter – realising that energy is not infinite and our time is limited, I try to create, play and improve my writing skills as much as possible. I hope to inspire young dreamers to write, to express their thoughts – to help them discover the beauty of the songwriting tradition”, says Tautvydas about his work.
