1️⃣ Ukraine

Ukraine has been granted permission to join this year's Eurovision song contest with the band Kalush Orchestra, named after the Ukrainian city of Kalush, situated in the Carpathian Mountains. Kalush Orchestra gains inspiration from authentic Ukrainian music and entwines different folk elements to really make their tunes stand out. Their song Stefania is a tribute to band member Oleh's mother and is performed entirely in Ukrainian.

2️⃣ Italy

Italy has taken Eurovision very seriously this year and it is no wonder the public puts so much faith into their performance - the participant Mahmood is a returning Eurovision contestant, who managed to sweep second place at the 2019 song contest. His single Soldi is one you have definitely heard of, as it became the most streamed Eurovision song of all time! But that's not everything - Mahmood is sharing the stage with singer and rapper BLANDI, whose single Impasare spent 8 weeks at the top of the Italian song charts. It turned out it was just keeping the spot warm for the debut release of his album Blue Celeste which also rose to number one. With all this in mind, you should definitely check out this year's entry from Italy - Brividi. We have a feeling you'll like it.

3️⃣ Sweden

Sweden has decided to go for an English song this year, performed by participant Cornelia Jakobs, a rising new star in the Swedish pop scene. Jakobs clearly has musical talent running in her blood, with a father who is a popular Swedish rockstar, and a grandma who is a composer. Of course, we should give credit where it is due - Cornelia is the winner of the Melodifestivalen, a grandiose annual Swedish song competition. She also has numerous performances behind her back on the Swedish stage and is currently working on her debut album. Sweden's entry Hold Me Closer

4️⃣ Portugal

Portugal's performer MARO is set on building a solid career in the music industry and has been part of numerous incredible concerts in her past. She has 6 albums behind her back which she also wrote and produced, and during her time in LA caught the ear of Grammy award winner Jacob Collier who invited her along to join his touring band. MARO is a talented vocalist and instrumentalist and she will be performing the song Saudade, saudade for this year's song contest.

5️⃣ Moldova

If you are looking for a hilarious listen, you're going to love the song Trenulețul by the band Zdob şi Zdub. The upbeat music, combined with their dynamic video makes for a catchy sing-along tune. Trenuletul translates to train and the song references the train line between Chișinău and Bucureșt and the obvious differences between the two. The band is accompanied by Advanov Brothers, who have grown in popularity in Moldova in recent years. they even have their own folk orchestra, which joins them in musical events all over the country. One thing is clear for Moldova - they can really put on a show!

6️⃣ Spain

For those who love to party, the spicy and extravagant performance by Chanel Terrero will become an instant favourite. SloMo>. It is clear where her confidence and dancing skills come from - the years of experience for musical theatre productions definitely had part in it. She has been part of the stage productions of The Lion King, Flashdance, The Bodyguard and Mamma Mia. But I bet you will be truly impressed when you find out she danced on stage for Shakira in 2010 at the MTV Europe Music Awards. It is clear that Chanel is made for the stage, and SloMo is not only Spain's entry for Eurovision, but it is also Chanel's debut single!
