Eurovision 2022: Moldova’s First Rehearsal!

After S10’s deep ballad, Zdob şi Zdub & Advahov Brothers, Moldova’s participants, are here to make a party at the Eurovision stage with their song “Trenulețul“.

About Zdob şi Zdub & Advahov Brothers

Zdob şi Zdub are a band who have become just as infamous for their spectacular live shows, as they have for their catchy, sing-along tunes.The band have been around since 1994, honing their craft with a near constant schedule of gigs, tours and festival appearances, and managing to release 10 albums in the process.

Their debut at Eurovision was also Moldova’s very first outing at the Contest, at which Zdob și Zdub gave their nation a 6th place finish with the song Boonika Bate Toba. They were back again in 2011 with So Lucky, progressing to the grand final once more and giving Moldova a 12th place result to be proud of.

The band will be joined in Turin by the Advahov Brothers: two musicians who are so popular in Moldova, they even have their own folk orchestra, frequently playing at sold-out events across their country. Zdob şi Zdub & Advahov Brothers plan on releasing a whole album of material together.

The Rehearsal

After a long day in the arena, a bit of folklore and rock ‘n’ roll is the perfect way to wrap up today’s rehearsals. This song is SUCH fun, and Zdob şi Zdub & Advahov Brothers are bring big train energy to the Pala Olimpico stage.

They’ve gone full neon on the lighting and the graphics, AND there are even a couple of little dance routines in the chorus. It’s the first time we’ve seen the B Stage used today – there are a couple of drawbridges over the waterfall that go up and down.

This is three minutes of joyful chaos, but we are very much on board.

Below you can watch a small clip from Moldova’s first rehearsal from Tik Tok:
