TAKING KEiiNO ON A VIRTUAL TRIP ACROSS EUROPE AND BEYOND – DAY 5 – BARCELONA, SPAIN

KEiiNO (members Alexandra Rotan, Tom Hugo and Fred Buljo) was selected directly for the final of the 2021 Norwegian Eurovision selection. Their song is called MONUMENT. KEiiNO is very much a fan based group and during their 2019 campaign traveled across Europe to perform their 2019 Eurovision entry Spirit in the sky to their fans in various countries. Due to the Corona pandemic, such a tour is not possible this year and so ESC Covers has decided to take them on a virtual tour for the next 2 or so weeks across Europe and even beyond. Day 5 brings us to SPAIN. It is the first time we are bringing them to another city other than the capitol. In Spain Madrid had so much snow in recent days and there also was an explosion in the middle of the city, so they are moving to BARCELONA and at their famous cathedral SAGRADA FAMILIA BASILICA where they will light some candles in memory of all the people who died because of Covid 19.

The ESC Covers team of Roy van der Merwe, Ian Fowell and Barry Tsai are arranging this virtual tour.
