Junior Eurovision 2024: Leo will represent Armenia in Madrid!

With less than two months to go until the 22nd Junior Eurovision Song Contest, today it was Armenia’s turn to reveal its Junior Eurovision 2024 representative. The Caucasian country is ready for its seventeenth participation in the children’s contest and just moments ago, AMPTV announce that Leo will represent the country in Madrid.

How was Leo selected?

AMPTV chose its Junior Eurovision 2024 participant via an internal selection as it has done for the past years. Aspiring artists were auditioned and evaluated by a focus group consisting both local and international industry professionals.

Who is Leo?

He was raised in a family of singers and began entertaining as soon as he could talk at 8 months old. His favorite artists are Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Justin Timberlake and Teddy Swims. In addition to music, he enjoys football and reading.

Taking part in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest has been a dream for Leo:

I love my country and the world of music. Representing Armenia on an international stage through music is both joyful and incredibly responsible. I was taught to always believe in myself and I am sure that each and every human has a great power to reach for their dreams!

Leo’s song will be released at a later stage.
