Paula is progressing very well in the 2017 Eurovizijos dainų konkurso nacionalinė atranka national finals selection in Lithuania with her song Let U Go. Here Paula talks to ESC Covers –

Hello Paula. Many congratulations on making it to the semi-finals of the 2017 Eurovizijos dainų konkurso nacionalinė atranka. Could you tell us something about your song ‘Let U Go’ and what it is about and who composed the song?

Thank you so very much! I co-wrote ‘Let U Go’ with Lithuanian singer-songwriter Echoes, who also produced ‘#BLCK’, the latest album of Donny Montell. It all started when we were jamming on guitars in the recording studio. We wrote it really quickly and moved on to mixing and mastering the record in various studios across Europe.

‘Let U Go’ is basically about people reaching for their dreams. No matter how hard it gets it’s up to us to make it all happen. Participating in the Eurovision Song Contest, performing the music I love, writing songs – it’s me reaching for mine. All it takes is to be determined, work hard and believe that everything is possible!

2. Is this your first attempt at competing at Eurovision?

It is!

3. ‘Let U Go’ has a good vibe and I am sure can be big on the dancefloors of Europe. Is this the style of music you normally perform?

Since it is my first record it’s too early to tell. But it sure is the kind of music I love.

4. Have you participated in any music festivals or competitions in Lithuania or abroad? If so, can you tell us about them.

Eurovizijos dainų konkurso nacionalinė atranka (Eurovision) is the first one for me.

5. Will there be a music video for ‘Let U Go’?

I think not. I’m thinking about doing a music video for my next song…..

6. Do you have any plans to release an album this year?

Honestly, I don’t think about that kind of stuff. Right now I’m just in the moment… enjoying. I’ll keep working hard and writing music so who knows? Maybe by the end of the year I’ll have enough material for the album.

7. What are your favourite Eurovision songs from the past?

‘Rhythm Inside’ by Loïc Nottet (2015 ESC Belgium) is my favourite one yet.

8. Do you have a website or a page on social media where our readers can learn more about you?
