Belgium announce artist for Tel Aviv

Belgium have chosen their artist to compete in Eurovision 2019 and it's Eliot Vassamillet.

Eliot is an 18-year-old best known for his appearance on The Voice Belgique where he progressed to the live shows but was eliminated early.

The songs itself will be composed by PIerre Dumoulin. Dumoulin was responsible for another Beligan entry - 'City LIghts' performed by Blanche in 2017 which finished in 4th.

According to the official Eurovision website, Dumoulin said of Eliot, "The moment I saw Eliot’s blind audition, I felt he had that little something extra that I look for in an artist, the sensitivity and fragility which are so necessary to convey emotion."
