The first estimates speak for Alma and it seems that it meets the conditions. Alma-Sofia Miettinen is a 28-year-old Finnish singer and songwriter who went by the stage name Alma. Starting her career in 2013, she placed fifth in the seventh season of Finnish Idol. Her first effort started in 2015 when she released the single “Muuta ku mä” by Sini Sabotage and then signed with Universal Music Group.

The following year he released the singles “Karma” and “Dye My Hair”, both of which became big hits in Finland. In 2017, the release of “Chasing Highs” repeated this success and also reached the top twenty in Germany and the UK. He has collaborated with big names such as Charli XCX, Tove Lo, MØ and Miley Cyrus.

Finland: More details for “UMK 2024″‘s third artist!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The official account of Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu on Instagram brought into the light some new details regarding the third artist that is going to participate at UMK 2024, Finland’s national final. These details are the following:

  1. Diamonds Are Forever
  2. 💩
  3. Rattling!

The very first odds are talking about Mikael Gabriel, Apulanta and Sanni, although the most favourite to win and to fullfil these expectations is probably Mikael Gabriel. Mikael Kristian Gabriel Sohlman, known professionally as Mikael Gabriel, is a Finnish 33 years old rapper who has already released six solo albums and has worked with a number of artists, including Cheek, Lord Est, Robin and Uniikki. He is also a famous television personality in Finland since he participated at the fifth season of the musical TV reality show “Vain Elämää” and he has also been a judge at the second season of Finland’s “X Factor” in 2018. Take a look at his single “Ruotsinlaiva“:

Let’s keep in mind that UMK’s songs for 2024 are set to be released from the 11th up to the 19th of January one by one each day while the artists will be revealed on January the 10th!

Thus, a few days are separating us from finding out who are going to be Käärijä’s succesors for Finland in Eurovision Song Contest 2024 and whether they will manage to keep Finland at the Final’s top3 or not, as Käärijä did with his hit song “Cha Cha Cha” in 2023 ending up at the second place.

Three singers—Sara Maria Forsberg, Saara Aalto, and Sini Sabotage—are mentioned in the initial speculations. Sara Maria Forsberg appears to fulfill the requirements. 29-year-old Sara Maria Forsberg is an actor and singer-songwriter. She rose to fame after she posted a singing video on YouTube which eventually went viral. Capitol Records then gave her a record deal. She later moved to Los Angeles in order to develop her music. Soon after, she received an invitation to play Natalya in the movie Skiptrace, where she costarred with Jackie Chan and other celebrities. Despite her lack of acting experience, people were amazed by the work she did on the set.

 

From January 11 to January 19, one song from UMK 2024 will be released every day. On January 10, the artists will be revealed!

Käärijä, the former UMK champion and Finland’s representative at Eurovision 2023, placed second in the Grand Final with the song “Cha cha cha”.

/0 Comments/in , , /by

It is true that a single photo is able to bring chaos to the Eurovision community. In fact, a leaked photo has sparked interest this weekend, just a week before the artists’ reveal for UMK 2024.

The photo, which has since gone viral, depicts a schedule for the UMK final. The document is in English, but that’s not what’s strange about it. The UMK production team has expanded to include non-Finns in recent years, putting documents in English to make them more comprehensive and accessible to non-Finnish speakers.

According to this document, Käärijä and Erika Vikman(UMK 2020) will serve as the show-openers, but the rest of the list is what has caught the attention of everyone.

Are these the competing artists in UMK 2024?

The following seven artists are mentioned in this leaked photo, along with their song titles:

  1. Mikael Gabriel & Nublu – “Serenaad”
  2. Sini Saboage – “Taivaan Valo”
  3. Sexmane – “TULTA”
  4. Windows95man & Henri Piispanen – “I Remember”
  5. Jesse Markin – “Anthem”
  6. Cyan Kicks – “Whisper”
  7. Sara Siipola – “Tupre Tunt”

The candidates of UMK 2024 will be revealed on Wednesday, January 10 at 19:00 CET during a broadcast on Yle TV1, Yle Areena and UMK’s YouTube channel. Also, the broadcast will include commentary in Finnish, Swedish as well as in English, for the international audience.
