The field of candidates for the red-white-red ESC ticket has slightly changed. Latin pop singer Tamara Flores is stepping down due to "personal reasons," and her successor has already been determined.

Change in the dozen candidates: After the announcement on Monday of the twelve acts who will compete on February 20th in the ORF show "Vienna Calling" for the domestic final ticket to the 70th Eurovision Song Contest, there is already a new face in the lineup on Thursday. Latin pop singer Tamara Flores is withdrawing "by her own decision for personal reasons" and will be replaced by Sidrit Vokshi. The Viennese artist sings about "When I smoke" in his song.

Sidrit Vokshi instead of Tamara Flores

Not to be confused with co-candidate Nikotin. He sings "Immortal." Or the Tyrolean Kayla Krystin, who is already a step further and competes with "I brenn."
