Lily Mai Duncan impressed many with her performances in the 2018 Chwilio am Seren national selection for Junior Eurovision in Wales. Lily is now participating in the Welsh Factor competition and is establishing more respect and admiration for her powerful vocals.

Welsh Factor is an established competition and is organised by the GTMP Entertainment Group, and they have a good history of training and mentoring artists for the future.

You will see below Lily performing She Used To Be Mine by Sara Bareilles which she sings beautifully.

Also below you can see Lily sing Berta (the song that eventually became Perta and was performed by Manw at the 2018 Junior Eurovision) in the final of the 2018 Chwilio am Seren.

Lily was recently one of the super finalists in the 2018 Chwilio am Seren national selection for Wales for the Junior Eurovision Song Contest.

Lily impressed many with her powerful voice and she got to perform live to an audience at The Quadrant Shopping Mall in Swansea. She gave an excellent performance of the 2014 Eurovision winning song by Conchita Wurst, Rise Like A Phoenix. Lily performed the song in the Welsh language. It was a charming and emotional stage presentation.

In the final of the Chwilio am Seren Lily sang a cover of Adre by Caryl Parry Jones. After a regional jury vote Lily was one of three super finalists who got to give their interpretation of the Wales Junior Eurovision song, Berta.

Eventually, Manw was crowned as the winner of the Chwilio am Seren and will represent Wales in Minsk, Belarus in November.

However, I am sure we will be hearing more of Lily in the future. In the meantime check out her performances of Rise Like A Phoenix, Berta and Adre.

Over the last few weeks viewers on the tv channel, S4C, have been searching for potential stars to represent Wales for the first time at the 2018 Junior Eurovision Song Contest. The contestants have been narrowed down gradually and last week we saw 12 young singers take to a stage in the Quadrant Shopping Centre in Swansea. This was to give the kids a taste of performing to the public.

Six singers were selected for the grand final of the 2018 Chwilio am Seren national selection to be broadcast on Tuesday 9 October in Llandudno in Wales.

Let us take a look at the finalists and their performances (all in the Welsh language and including a version of the winning ESC song of 2014 by Conchita Wurst – Rise Like A Phoenix) in Swansea –
