A Cypriot from Australia will present the song "Liar" at Eurovision
Sixteen-year-old Australian Cypriot Silia Capsis will present the song "Liar" at the Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden.
The composition, written by Demetris Kontopoulos and Elke Til, will represent Cyprus at the 68th contest in Malmö. The music video for the song, directed by Kostas Karidas, will be released on all platforms on Thursday.
"In the video, shot for the first time in many years in Cyprus, we see through the eyes of Cypriot representative Silia Capsis a series of repressive situations imposed by the false world and the dark side of social networks," the statement says.
The video will also feature choreography with which the song "Liar" will be presented on stage, under the direction of renowned choreographers Guy Groove and Kelly Swain from Los Angeles.
The video will be available on rik.cy from 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, and the premiere will take place on the official Eurovision channel on YouTube at 7:00 p.m.
Recall that earlier the Cypriot Radio Corporation announced the name of the performer who will represent the Republic of Cyprus at the 68th Eurovision Song Contest. She will be 16-year-old Silia Capsis.
The young star was born in 2006 in Sydney, Australia, to a family of Cypriot immigrants. She released her debut song "Who Am I" in 2022, although she wrote it when she was only 12. In March and May of last year, two more singles were released - "No Boys Allowed" and "Disco Dancer."
The next Eurovision Song Contest will take place in May 2024 in Malmö, Sweden. In 2023, Cyprus was also represented by Australian-born Andrew Lambrue.
