Estonia: Birgit Öigemeel,Artjom Savitski & Greip

Congratulations Estonia. Today it´s your day, Independence day. That motivated me to open the curtains to Estonia our southern neighbour.

Birgit Öigemeel,born 1988, was the 1st Idols winner in Estonia 2007. She has already represented her country in Eurovision Song Contest 2013 with the song "et uus saaks alguseks" receiving 20th place, which in my opinion was wrong. She deserved to be placed far higher. This song "lendame valguskiirusel" is her new singlerelease and at the moment 3rd in charts. Read more www.birgit.ee



Artjom Savitski, born 1992, took part in 4th edition of Estonia looking for a superstar and received 2nd place in 2011. He is from Tallinn and released several singles and acted also as backing singer in Eurolaul. This song Löputu/infinite has been one of the most played songs for me since it´s releasing last december.












Accapella is what seems to be more popular. Estonia has several groups and maybe the best is Greip from Pärnu. Group started 2006 creating music in various styles. This video attracted me because it shows the singingstyle, which was typical for us slavic souls. This song "vihma loits" means spell for rain. Estonian folkloristic sounds are served for you and you can read more of the group www.greip.eu
