Today, German national public broadcaster NDR/ARD has revealed the 33 acts who are still in the race to represent the country in Ukraine. The names have been selected after an appointment held in Cologne Germany in the past days.
Anyway, the process is not over yet, as all 33 singers have already performed in front of a panel who will ultimately decide the final 5 names aiming to make the nation pride at Europe’s favorite TV show in Kiev. Every finalist will be assigned a song specially written for the occasion, hoping to get the best quality to get the contest back to Germany in 2018, so that NDR has already started asking composers and songwriters for potential entries.
“Unser Song 2017”, as previously announced, will take place on the 9th of February at 15:30 CET in Cologne. Tickets can already be purchased by clicking HERE.
Currently, the line-up looks as it follows:
- Alessandro Capasso
- Alex Scuderi
- Anja Licht
- Axel Feige
- Beccy
- Coopa
- Elvira Michieva
- Felicia Lu Kürbiß
- Florian Brückl
- Helene Nissen
- Jo Marie Dominiak
- Kai Schernbeck
- Leonie Krakowski
- Levina
- Lisa Toh
- Luisa Skrabic
- Makeda Michalke
- Marvin Schloßhauer
- Mary-Anne Bröllochs

Lena, Tim Bendzo and Florian Silbereisen will give their point of view on each of the competing performances at the show but the final decision will be solely in hands of the audience, so 100% televoting will be used to pick the German act at Eurovision 2017!
Will they get to improve their two last positions in-a-row in 2015 and 2016 respectively? They are betting high this year!
