Road to TISC Annual - Mexico 2019

 

 

 

It's now just 4 days until the Grand Final of TISC Annual 2019 and the excitement is certainly building. In today's edition of the "Road to TISC Annual 2019" series we will be looking at 5 artists who are returning to the contest this year. As well as celebrating the returnees, we will be paying tribute to 2 jury members and Totallympics members who have put their own hat in the ring and submitted their own entries as competing artists.

Part 1 we have 3 TISC returnees: :CRO Zsa Zsa, :MLT Ira Losco and :NZL Yumi Zouma. Part 2 we have :NED Within Temptation and 2 Totallympics members who have competed on the TISC stage - :RUS JRBS (band member vovanA is a Totallympic user) and :LTU Gerbrasy (our very own Werloc).

 

 

We begin however with Zsa Zsa, the Croatian singer who has been nominated for the second year in succession to compete at TISC Annual. Last year, Zsa Zsa delivered Croatia their best result in the Annual contest to date and will be hoping for another record-setting showing in Mexico this year. She will also become the first Croatian artist with more than one participation at the contest.

She's back for another shot at glory this year with her song "Hey Now".

After the Czech Republic´s entry yesterday,

it´s time now to introduce for the TAISC 2019 Festival of music the entry of Ecuador.

 

After a hard fight between the two rising stars from Guayaquil Nikki Mackliff, Maga Cordova and the already well established Mia Orellana, Fausto Miňo and the unique and still disarmingly charming Mirella Cesa (unfortunately her La Corriente is not eligible for this edition anymore, I´ll never stop to blame myself to not presented it last year),

 

I decided to select Maga Córdova and her current big hit

Road to TISC Annual - Mexico 2019

 

 

 

Part 2 of today's Road to TISC Annual 2019 edition we continue looking at the artists who have made multiple appearances at the contest.

When the Netherlands made their TISC debut back at TISC Open 2014, Within Temptation was the artist given the honour of bringing Dutch music to the TISC stage for the first time. Roll forward to TISC Annual 2019 and the band has once more been trusted with flying the Dutch flag at the contest. Kensington are taking a back seat for this edition.

 

 

 

 

 

 

:NED  Netherlands - Within Temptation

 

Within Temptation finished 18th at TISC Open 2014 in Serbia

:RUS  Russia - JRBS

 

 

vovanA's band JRBS twice represented Russia at TISC

Totallympics member vovanA has undertaken the proud task of representing Russia not only as a jury member, but he also entered the contest as an artist. In fact he has done so on two occasions, competing at consecutive TISC Annuals in 2016 and 2017 with his band JRBS. Although Russia returned to the contest since then, TISC Annual 2017 remains the last time that vovanA participated at the contest in either capacity as a juror or artist. Let's hope he will return again one day.

:LTU  Lithuania - Gebrasy

 

 

Gebrasy, aka Werloc, is entering TISC for a second time this year

Totallympics member Werloc made TISC history when he made the decision to participate as an artist at TISC Open 2014. It was a proud moment for the contest to have a member compete with their own song - and he's decided to do it all over again. This time Gebrasy competes with the song "Acceptance" and no doubt he will be hoping for acceptance from the international juries. Good luck to Werloc.

Road to TISC Annual - Mexico 2019

 

 

 

It's African evening in today's edition of the "Road to TISC Annual 2019" with 4 of today's featured artists representing the African continent and another of African heritage. We also feature a TISC champion and a TISC medalist who both had a second bite of the cherry, but with different outcomes.

In Part 1 we feature 2 Egyptian artists :EGY Amr Diab and Dalida and a TISC champion from Germany :GER who is also of Egyptian origin.

In Part 2 we feature :MAR Hindi Zahra, :TUN Emel Mathlouthi and a TISC bronze-medallist from Ireland :IRL Gary Moore.

 

 

We begin our journey this evening in Egypt and remember Amr Diab, the Egyptian artist who represented his nation at the first 2 editions of the contest (TISC Open 2013 and TISC Annual 2014). Amr's first appearance at the inaugural TISC remains Egypt's finest result to date, with his entry El Leila finishing in 18th place.

Amr Diab is not the only artist however to have represented Egypt on 2 occasions. When Dalida competed at TISC Open in 2015, it would be quite some time before we would see Egypt at the contest again. But after a 3-year hiatus from the contest, Egypt decided to make their long-awaited return at TISC Open 2018 and they chose Dalida once more as the artist to bring Egyptian music back on the TISC stage.

:GER  Germany - Adel Tawil

 

 

Adel Tawil became the first ever TISC Annual champion

In 2014, the first ever edition of TISC Annual took place. Germany entered with Adel Tawil, a German singer, songwriter with Egyptian roots. His entry "Lieder" went down a storm with the international juries, picking up a whopping 200 points and he lifted the crown to become the first TISC Annual Champion.

Germany decided to enter him again in the TISC Annual one year later in a bid to defend his title. However, on this occasion, it wasn't to be with his entry "Zuhause" coming home in 17th place.

When Ireland competed at the inaugural TISC edition in 2013, the duo of Gary Moore and Phil Lynott were the act chosen to carry Irish hopes. Their song "Out In The Fields" finished in a creditable 9th position with a haul of 111 points.

However, 5 years later at TISC Open 2018, Gary made a return to the contest, this time in a solo effort. With his rock anthem "Over The Hills And Far Away", Gary secured a memorable return to the contest as he took home the bronze medal, scoring 127 points from the international juries.
