Latvia's Lauris Loves Laura In New Video

Earlier today, Riga's Lauris Reiniks released this great video for "Banjo Laura," which is in contention to represent Latvia this year at Eurovision. The clip has an epic and funny intro (and outro) but the song is actually really good if you give it a chance. Oddly enough, the banjo is mixed low in the song and it's not too annoying, so we have that to be thankful for, as well as the tune being entirely in English. Reiniks had a massive hit last year with "Es Skrienu," but this song is better and the video will help it internationally. Have a look and listen below. Good song.
