The Eurovision Song Contest's Ukrainian representatives, TVORCHI, were ready to tackle the political responsibilities they knew the role would bring.
The electronic heavyweights follow in the steps of Eurovision royalty Ruslana, Jamala and most recently Kalush Orchestra in their attempt to lift the contest trophy. Ukraine has a long lineage of topical, revolutionary and cultural bangers at Eurovision and TVORCHI's entry, Heart of Steel, is no different.
After they stormed their country's national selection competition, Vidbir, it was smooth sailing to the top of the fan leaderboards where they sat comfortably for months.
