Latvia’s Supernova launched tonight with ten acts performing in the first of its live shows. Only four of the competing entries made it through to the semi final which will take place in a fortnight’s time. Read on to find out who progressed and who were eliminated.
The first two artists to advance to the next round, as voted by the public, were Catalpsia with their song ‘Damnation’ (16%) and one of the early favourites Justs with ‘Heartbeat’ (43%) a song that was written by last year’s Latvian representative Aminata. Of the remaining eight acts, two more would advance based on the jury’s decision. These places went to Marta Grigale who performed ‘Choices’ and Grisnins with song ‘We are the Light’.
