Singer STIRNA reveals story behind hit 'Pirksti dūrē' and phone in freezer
Latvian singer STIRNA appeared on the podcast 'Tīrradnis', sharing her rise to fame, the making of her hit 'Pirksti dūrē', and her debut album project that will also be a film.
Singer and songwriter STIRNA was a guest on the podcast 'Tīrradnis', hosted by Ēriks Sakons, where she openly discussed her incredible journey to fame, the behind-the-scenes of her hit 'Pirksti dūrē', and her upcoming debut album, which will also be released as a film.
The song 'Pirksti dūrē' brought her widespread recognition almost overnight, amassing three million streams in just two days. The sudden attention felt surreal and even somewhat hysterical, especially when people in public transport started staring at her. The online reaction was so intense that her phone overheated and she had to put it in the freezer to cool it down. 'My phone was frozen. It lived in the freezer, it was hot. Very hot,' she recalled.
STIRNA also spoke about working on her debut album, emphasizing that it will be a multimedia project combining music and film. Additionally, she shared her experiences with poetry and the Camino de Santiago, which may have influenced her creative process.
