Eurovision 2023: Armenia’s First Rehearsal!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The next artist to come up on the stage is Brunette, representing Armenia, with the bilingual song “Future Lover”.

Who is Brunette?

Elen Yeremyan is known in the music industry as Brunette, is an Armenian singer and songwriter born in 4th May of 2001 and raised in Yerevan. She’s active in singing and songwriting at the age of fifteen and she released her debut single “Love The Way You Feel” at 2019. Brunette is also a member of the girl group “En aghjiknery” which it means “ThoseGirlz”. Last year, the singer released many singles which you can find them on the music platforms.

On 1st February, it was announced that Brunette was internally chosen to represent her country to the Song Contest by the National Broadcaster ARMTV.

The Rehearsal

Unfortunately this year, accredited journalists don’t get the chance to watch the first and second rehearsals, so we only get the information and content that the organizers officially release to the public.

The song starts off with Brunette lying on a sloped stucture that’s been erected at the front of the stage, against a backdrop of swirling graphics. When the rap part starts, the whole stage persence goes off.

Brunette has incredible stage presence and a powerful vocal, and this staging makes really clever use of light and graphics during the tempo changes.

Last year’s changes in the way rehearsals are covered continue this year, as the Press Center opens on Monday after the first and second rehearsals, which means that the information we will have for the first week of the competition will come exclusively from the material to be provided by the EBU to the accredited journalists.
