Cyprus: Theo Evan will represent the country in Basel!

The dates, the host city as well as the venue that will host Eurovision 2025 were made public a couple days ago. Now, the first Eurovision 2025 participant was also announced. Following the tradition of announcing its representative at this early stage, RIK revealed moments ago that Theo Evan will represent the nation in Basel.

How was Theo Evan selected?

Theo Evan (nee Vangelis Theodorou) will fly the Cypriot flag in Basel and at Eurovision 2025.

As we have previously informed you, the young artist was selected by RIK’s evaluation committee, which based its decision on two criteria. Specifically, the broadcaster was looking for singers based in Cyprus and artists who can handle the pressure of the competition.

One of the two male artists who really stood out in the last round was Theo Evan. RIK made their selection last week and so today we had the official announcement.

Moreover, the song that will represent Cyprus in Eurovision 2025 was selected before the artist, as RIK usually does. Therefore, the song already exists and will be revealed at a later stage.

Despite his young age, Evangelos Theodorou, known as Theo Evan, has already managed to stand out, leaving the promise of many things to come in the future. Theo Evan is a newcomer but highly talented singer and songwriter, who expresses himself equally through music and dance. A graduate of Berklee, perhaps the world’s top music university in America, he decided to return to Los Angeles, the city he chose to shape his own musical career, and in recent years has returned to his hometown of Nicosia.

He finished his studies earlier than their normal duration with honours. This did not leave his professors unimpressed, and at the last three graduation ceremonies he took part as a guest of honour, alongside music legends such as Justin Timberlake, Missy Eliott, Pharell Williams and John Legend.

At the age of 7, she started taking dance lessons in Nicosia. It was soon apparent that he was a gifted singer and dancer. His natural talent led him to success and awards in various competitions.

 In addition, he was a member of the school’s choir and took part at a number of musical events and performances, including talent shows and musical theater shows, which inspired and motivated him to write his own songs. His musical preferences have shifted over time toward Pop, while his inspiration has been Michael Jackson.
