Mamagama release music video for ‘Run With U’
Once again, Azerbaijan have opted for an internal selection to confirm its act for Eurovision 2025. After going through 154 submissions, Ictimai TV announced that Mamagama will be taking to the stage this May in Basel. The first time a group has represented Azerbaijan at Eurovision.
The electro-pop band have history with the contest after previously trying to represent the nation in 2023 with the entry, ‘River’. Not afraid of live music competitions, the band formed in 2022, have also taken part in Albania’s second famous music festival, Kënga Magjike. In the 2022 edition, they place fourth with, ‘Dreamer’ and received the award for Best International New Artist. The band are comprised of three members – Safael Mishiev, Bahruz Afandiyev and Allahverdi Gumbatli.
Today, the group has premiered the music video for their entry, ‘Run With U’ on the official Eurovision YouTube channel. The song, retaining their signature sound was written and produced by the band and is entirely in English.
Last year, Azerbaijan were represented by Fahree and Ilkin Dovlatov with the song ‘Özünlə apar’. Marking the first time Azerbaijan had performed in their native language. The duo sadly did not make it to the Grand Final, placing 14th out of 15 acts in the first Semi-Final.
