Greece: These are the five artists who are still claiming the ticket for Turin!
We are one step closer to the artist, who will represent Greece in the 66th Eurovision Song Contest. The ERT has published the names of the five artists, who still continue to claim the Greek representation in Turin. It was also announced, as Eurovisionfun has reported months ago, that the Greek representative in Turin will be chosen internally, by the expert committee.
25 artists submitted about 40 songs to ERT, of which the competent committee under Dimitris Papadimitriou selected the five best, performed by an equal number of artists.
So the five lucky ones who still hope to represent Greece in the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest are:
Amanda Tenfjord (Amanda Georgiadis)
The expatriate artist from Norway, with an experienced and strong team, enters the internal selection with a classy, inner ballad. – more HERE.
Good Job Nicky (Nikolas Varthakouris)
Nikolas Varthakouris participates in the internal selection with a cinematic song. He also has a strong team behind him, with Fokas Evangelinos standing out. – more HERE.
Elias Kozas
Three songs have been submitted by the Greek representative at Eurovision 2013. Completely different from Alcohol Is Free and in an insurgent rhythm, as he told us. One song of them is in the final list – more HERE.
Lou is
Lou is is an expericed artist. Her true name is Louisa Sofianopoulou. She has worked with all the big Greek artists like Giannis Kotsiras, Eleni Vitali, Dimitra Galani and more. Her record label is called The Hubsters.
Joanna Drigo
Joanna Drigo or Ioanna Drigopoulou is a young singer and musician with pop-rock influences. She sings both Greek and English songs. Her record label is Cobalt Eclectic.
The final selection will be made after the committee of ERT first has private meetings with the artists and the groups that frame their proposals. In these meetings each artist will give more information about his/her song, the plans of the stage appearance, the promotion intends to do, etc. The final selection by the ERT’s jury will take into account all the above.
Surprisingly, in the final five, there aren’t names that for many were considered as favorites, proving that the only criterion of ERT is the proposals of the artists and their prospects in the difficult track of Eurovision.
Which artist do you think will be the final choice of ERT and will represent Greece in Eurovision 2022? Tell us in the comments below!
