This year’s Austrian representatives continue their tour this week with a visit to the Serbian capital of Belgrade, where they managed to meet up with the 2015 Serbian representative Bojana Stamenov.

Both the 2015 Austrian and Serbian representatives met at a press conference which was held yesterday in the city of Belgrade where their entries, I am yours and Beauty never lies, were presented.

After speaking with Bojana, The Makemakes went on to say:

Bojana is a genuine ‘Soul Machine’, a proper power lady and we get along great with her. Belgrade is an impressive city with pretty girls and very good food. We are pleased that we have advanced to the song contest as we get to know a wide variety of European cities.

Bojana also discussed her meeting with the Austrian trio:

The boys of The Makemakes are so cute and I like their style; the old-school rock flair of the 70s. They remind me of the super-group Cream! And I like their song; a cool and yet optimistic rock semi-ballad, great! I am pleased to be virtually the host today, and I am still enjoying the short time until the Eurovision Song Contest when we will all get together again in Vienna.

Earlier this month, The Makemakes met with this year’s Russian representative, Polina Gagarina, during a press conference in the city of Moscow. The band have since been performing around the continent promoting their Eurovision entry and music in the lead up to the Eurovision Song Contest 2015.

The Makemakes will compete in the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest on the 23 May in the host city of Vienna at the Wiener Stadthalle.

We’ll see Bojana’s first performance during semi-final 1 on the 19 May where she will be bidding for a place in the Grand Final alongside the 15 other competing countries.
