Switzerland rock the Crystal Hall
Baku, May 13 (AZERTAC). The seventh country to take to the impressive Baku Crystal Hall stage today was Sinplus of Switzerland. After a long promo tour over the past five months, it was finally time for them to rehearse their entry Unbreakable on the grand Eurovision stage.
Backstage, Sinplus were in a relaxed mood as they laughed and joked whilst running through their preparations. Both of the brothers Ivan and Gabriel Broggini admitted "It is good to finally be here after many months of preparation."
The group was seemingly keen to take to the stage, as even during their first sound rehearsal, they threw everything in to the performance.
For the staging, the two brothers are lead vocalists, both dressed in leather jackets, one black and one green. They are joined by a male drummer and female electric guitarist. To add to the visual effect, there are a set of speakers on stage.
The three guys are all wearing the Unbreakable t-shirts that viewers have been accustomed to seeing them in during their performances of late.
The LED backdrop gives the effect of travelling through a tunnel, as there are flashing blue, red, green and white lines shooting all over the stage, with flashing white spotlights intermittently. For the last rehearsal the group also used pyrotechnic flame effects prior to the last chorus.
It was evident to see that the routine was well practiced, and that the long promo tour has helped the group perfect the energetic stage act for Europe`s Favourite TV Show.
