Eurovision 2021: First Rehearsal for Go_A from Ukraine
Sunday, 09 May 2021

  • Second last rehearsal comes from the Ukrainian delegates the group Go_A who are performing 'Schum'. 

    Ukraine is one of the first countries to confirm its participation in Eurovision 2021 with UA: PBC deciding to stick with the national final winners of Vidbir 2020 and continue in Eurovision 2021 with the group  Go_A. The song selection, however, was determined through an internal selection with the band submitting three potential entries and a special jury assessing and selecting the entry titled "Shum". 

    Go_A is a Ukrainian electro-folk band that consists of Kateryna Pavlenko (vocalist), Taras Shevchenko (multi-instrumentalist), Ihor Didenchuk (sopiklar) and Ivan Hrihoryak (guitar). The band was formed in 2012 and in December the same year the first song "Koliada" (Коляда) was released. The band's name means "return to the roots" and was made by combining the English word "Go" with the Greek letter "Alpha", which symbolizes the beginning of everything. 

     

    The staging 

     

    Go_A pull through an amazing staging vocally and visually. Kateryna waers a green feather jacket while the boys are  in their hazmat suits.

    The visuals feature the trees, the bags of seeds, the halos made of ring lights, the psychedelic LED along with the amazing vocals from Kareryna , sum up to an outstanding performance that will be a big surprise if it won't reach the final.
