Maverick is another young singer that comes with something that would be fresh for Eurovision and that is what we call “electro-latino” songs. The main artist of this style, Juan Magán, is the one composing the song. And I personally hope a lot for this one.

María Isabel is back! We barely knew anything from her since her victory on the junior contest back in 2004 with “Antes muerta que sencilla” which still sounds from time to time at popular parties in Spain. Now she’s back with a dancing fresh song. This will be a serious contender to win the final.

Electric Nana is an indie singer that comes with an enthusiastic song. She’s been some years acting on tv shows with a famous DJ in Spain, Carlos Jean, and giving her voice to some of his creations. Last summer she has launched her own singles for the first time and on a very different style and getting a big success. Her song “won’t stop” has been aired for such a longtime by almost every radio station of Spain.

Finally yet importantly, we have Barei with her pop sound with electronic bases. She composes in English and makes an interesting mix of American soul and black music with powerful lyrics. She’s one of the most unknown singers of the group so her song can be boosted with this surprise effect and she can be considered as a serious contender to win the final too.
