Interview Interrogation: Nika Kocharov & Young Georgian Lolitaz (Georgia) - Eurovision 2016

Yet another Eurovision hopeful, this time it's Georgian entry Nika Kocharov & Young Georgian Lolitaz who faces the questions about their career, Eurovision chances and the like. Although they might as well be fairly unknown across Europe, they have in fact been going a truly respectable sixteen years. Their song 'Midnight Gold' should give them the much deserved attention.

They're an all-male Indie Rock band and so despite the sexist connotations made in the interview, they are sure to win over the hearts of European Indie Rock fans.

As Nika Kocharov & Young Georgian Lolitaz look ahead to their inaugural Eurovision performance at the second semi final, GMA wants to stress that only ten countries can progress from each of the two semi-finals and join the big 5 (UK, Italy, Spain, France & Germany) plus Sweden. Georgia has never won an edition of Eurovision unlike their neighbours Azerbaijan, so perhaps it might be there year. Their best result is a commendable 9th in 2010 and 2011, last year they placed 11th in the final with the super-gorgeous Nina Sublatti.

Here is how the interview panned out:-

Nika Kocharov & Young Georgian Lolitaz, how does it feel to be representing Georgia for the Eurovision Song Contest 2016?

Of course I’m excited. Regarding my expectations, I don’t really know what to think, our strength I feel lies with our live performance.

 
How have you been preparing for this event? What was your reaction when the GPB chose you as their selected entry?

To be honest I didn’t even know what to think, I never thought I would get an offer to play at the Eurovision Song Contest, but after the first meeting I realized “why not” and now I’m pretty much into it.


Are you excited or nervous? Seeing as you're the first all-male entry to represent Georgia, do you take pride in this fact?

Well it's a bit sexist isn't it? Joking aside, of course we're proud to be representing Georgia.


Please explain the meaning behind your song 'Midnight Gold'.

It’s about what goes on in a persons head after a long night. Basically “hard nights day”
 

What plans have you got for the rest of the year?

Well at the moment we've got more than enough songs for one album, the plan is to start working as soon as we come back. During the summer, for us is the best time for recording sessions.
 
Finally have you got any hello's, thank you's, etc you wish to send out?

Love & music will save the world (seriously :) )
