2. The band Xenos formed in the year 2000 and has become one of the most known Christian music bands in Latvia.

Two years in row (1999, 2000) Xenos leader, Santa was responsible to organize summer outreaches for Musicians Summer of Service, (YWAM Montana) music band called TAP. During these TAP concerts, in order to have some songs in the local language, Santa and her friend Sandis did some songs during the break...and that is where it all started. The next year they became a full band that was starting to do concerts all over Latvia. It was during the time when Christian rock music did not really exist in Latvia and Xenos had the privilege to be one of the first bands playing in different traditional churches, youth groups and different church organized events that were starting to take place.
