COVER2COVER PROMOTIONAL PLATFORM

Leave a comment

Since Monday 28 September, the ESC COVERS website (with our partners Eurovision coverage, EuroVisionMusic, Destination Eurovision and the radio station x5 stereo) started promoting the COVER2COVER concept. It is not a competition anymore but a promotion platform and hopefully South African artists will send covers to us. The 3 entries we received, Helena, Anton and Marle, will be carried over to the coverage. Victor Bush is once again our model and he will be holding promo items, CD’s and bags of some of the entries from the Eurovision song contest. The fifth one is of THE CZECH REPUBLIC 2017, MY TURN of MARTINA BARTA  with a promo CD package and bag.

MONTENEGRO WINS BARBARA DEX AWARD 2017

Leave a comment

We got this press release

Slavko Kalezić from Montenegro is this year’s winner of the Barbara Dex Award. The singer got the most votes. The prize is awarded each year to the worst dressed artist at the Eurovision Song Contest. Triana Park from Latvia and Martina Bárta from Czech Republic came in second and third place. The Belgian website songfestival.be hands out the award this year and received thousands of votes.

Slavko didn’t win the 62th Eurovision Song Contest with his  song Space, but he still gets to take home a prize. The singer gets an award for his rather remarkable outfit, one we will probably not be seeing on the red carpet anytime soon … The men’s high-knot pony tail helped to get a lot of votes.

Latvia and Czech Republic came in second and third place. According to the voters, these artists were dressed the worst on stage during the Eurovision Song Contest 2017.

The top 3:

  1. Montenegro – Slavko Kalezić
  2. Latvia – Triana Park
  3. Czech Republic – Martina Bárta

Votes from all over Europe

The Barbara Dex Award is a very popular prize among the Eurovision fans. The Belgian website Songfestival.be, who hands out the award since this year, received thousands of votes from all over Europe, and Australia.

The Barbara Dex Award is named after the Belgian Eurovision contestant in 1993. She wore a dress she designed herself, a creation that caught the eye of a lot of critics. Sadly not because it was so beautiful …

Artist thoughts from Prague Eurofriend (Designed by Carolina Añazgo Leo):

“How are you? Which translates to greetings, everyfriend! I’m Prague! And it’s nice to see there’s a new Eurostar in town. Her name is Martina Bárta and besides singing, she’s great playing the waldhorn, which translates as the instrument also known as french horn.
You know what? She’s a jazz singer. Which translates to she has a powerful singing voice!

Last year, everything went great for my country in Eurovision. Which translates to i qualified to the grand final for my first time ever and starting to understand it! This year, i’m doing my best for my friends and my land i represent, which translates to Are you ready to see Martina in the grand final in Kyiv?”- By Prague Eurofriend
