Eurovision 2023: Greece’s Second Rehearsal!
Closing up the first half of the second Semi-Final is Greece. Victor Vernicos with his song“What They Say” is ready for his second rehearsal on the stage of M&S Bank Arena in Liverpool!
Who is Victor Vernicos?
Victor Vernicos is the youngest artist participating in Eurovision 2023 and in fact the youngest Greek participant ever! Victor might be young but he’s got big dreams! Victor has been involved in music since he was 4 years old. He has taken vocal and guitar lessons, while he has also attended music technology seminars. In 2021 he released his first song in which he wrote music, lyrics but also produced it himself. He is now representing Greece in Eurovision Song Contest 2023 with a song that he wrote himself when he was 14 years old.
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 officially release to the public.

The youngest participant of this year’s eurovision takes the stage… and he’s not nervous at all. He’s giving this both vocal power and some great on-stage energy, backed up by multiple giant Victors on the LED wall. He’s wearing shorts to remind us how is the summer in Greece and a jacket in chaki colours.

His signature dance move is an infectious bounce that will have the arena jumping next Thursday – Ed Sheeran is one of his musical influences, and you can definitely feel the Sheeran vibe in What They Say. A confident and uplifting performance, and the Greek delegation should be very happy with that. In the final runthrough for Greece, we’ve got the added bonus of some low smoke.
