With just a bit more than two weeks to go before the Junior Eurovision Song Contest takes place Georgia blasts into the scene with the announcement of their chosen entry!

Georgian Public Broadcaster GPB is welcoming 10 year old Sandra as their 14th representative for the competition. Sandra will be singing You Are Not Alone when she performs for her country on Sunday 29 November.

Sandra comes from a supportive family and lives in Tbilisi with her mother, grandparents, cousin and aunt. The Georgian artist says she's had a deep connection to music since she was very little and really loves to sing. With her selection she's now several steps closer to her ultimate dream of becoming a worldwide performer.
