Switzerland: Finalists announced

This morning the Swiss German broadcaster SRF announced the 6 finalists that have been chosen from yesterday’s live auditions. The process started back in September with the opening of a submission process that closed in October with more than 160 songs received.
Twenty-one acts were picked to perform in the live auditions, where only 6 qualified for the final of ‘ESC 2017 – Entscheidungsshow’, to be broadcast on February 5th.

Freschta – Gold

Freschta will compete with the song ‘Gold‘, hoping this opportunity will promote her career. The 20-year-old singer started her journey when she competed at ‘The Voice of Switzerland’ back in 2014.

Ginta Biku – Cet Air La

Ginta Biku —who was born in Lithuania— competes with the song ‘Cet Air La‘. She promises to showcase her musical project which uses state-of-the-art technology.

Nadya – The Fire In The Sky
