Heat five saw highly anticipated return of The Roop to the Lithuanian national pre-selection. We all fell in love with the band back in 2020 when their entry ‘On Fire’ got selected to represent the country at Eurovision 2020 before its eventual cancellation. As the band were tipped to finish within the top 5, they decided to come back to Pabandom iš Naujo 2021, where they triumphed with ‘Discoteque‘. This year they are back with ‘Simple Joy’ which we will see performed at the Eurovizija.LT 2024 final on February 17 in Švyturio Arena, Klaipėda.

Running order

1. Freya Alley – “Serenade”
2. Kàro – “Weightless”
3. Petras – “Run”
4. Queens of Roses – “Walk through fire”
5. April Frey – “New Years”
6. Emilija V – “Trophy Wife”
7. The Roop – “Simple Joy”
8. Lina Štalytė – “Perfect”
