Eurovision 2023: Ukraine’s First Rehearsal!

Today is the fifth day of rehearsals in Liverpool and the first rehearsals of the BIG 5 countries are going to be held today! Next up on stage for their first rehearsal is Ukraine and TVORCHI with the R&B song “Heart Of Steel”.

Who are TVORCHI?

TVORCHI is a electonic music male duo from Ukraine. They formed in 2018 by the producer Andrii Hutsuliak and the vocalist Jimoh Ausustus Kehinde. The duo met when they were students at the Faculty of Pharmacy of Ternopil National Medical University. The duo is known in the Ukrainian society since they have gained many views from their debut. TVORCHI tried to represent Ukraine in the contest many times. In December, they entered the Ukrainian National Selection Vidbir 2023 and won coming second in the jury vote and first in the public.

The Rehearsal

Unfortunately this year, accredited journalists don’t get the chance to watch the first and second rehearsals, so we only get the information and content that the organizers officaly release to the public.

The song speaks about bravery and how someone with his personality can be unbreakable. With that info, the duo is using the LED wall and the lightning to give a powerful effect, including four boxes with LED backdrops too on stage. They are accompanied by two black-chad dancers. The new revamp with the orchestral – soaring strings, church organ-style keyboard effects, thumping bass with the vocals of the singer gives extra drama to the performance comes everything together in a perfect combination.
