Georgia: Member of the Junior Eurovision 2011 winner Candy group in The Voice of Georgia!

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In the third round of the auditions of the Voice of Georgia, through which the next representative of Georgia in the upcoming Eurovision 2023 in Liverpool will emerge, a Junior Eurovision winner managed to shine.

Specifically, the contestant is Iru Khechanov, one of the members of the Candy group who achieved the second victory of the Caucasian nation at the Junior Eurovision Song Contest in 2011 with the song Candy Music.

Iru Khechanov performed Loren Allred’s song “Never Enough” and managed to turn three out of four coach chairs.

Georgia that debuted in the Contest in 2007 and has only missed the 2009 edition, has not qualified to the grand final of the show since Eurovision 2016, when Nika Kocharov and Young Georgian Lolitaz with the song Midnight Gold ended up 20th with 104 points.

In 2022 in Turin of Italy Georgia was represented by Circus Mircus group and the song Lock Me In but achieved nothing more than finishing 18th and last in the second semifinal with 22 points.
