Lithuania will start their national selection process for Eurovision 2021: “Pabandom Iš Naujo 2021” on the 16th of January 2021.
Originally, the selection process included 23 artists. However, 2 artists have decided to withdraw:
The singer Gintarė Korsakaitė revealed she withdrawn from the national selection “Pabandom iš naujo 2021″.
The singer claimed she had informed LRT (The Lithuanian broadcaster) before they published the list of participants.
Another withdrawal is the singer Evelina Sašenko.
She represented Lithuania at Eurovision 2011 with the song “C’est Ma Vie“. She ended in 19th place in the grand final.
Therefore we are left with 21 artists. One among them is “The Roop” that won the national selection in 2020 with the song “On Fire” and should have represented the country at Eurovision 2020.
