This year, Azerbaijan has sent Aisel to be their tenth Eurovision representative.

She’s a jazz pianist by trade, but X My Heart is nothing like jazz and nor is the Eurovision stage in Lisbon.

How does she still get to improvise?

Has the Eurovision circus been as crazy as she thought it would be?

And what firewalls would she like to pull down?

See Aisel perform in Semi 1 on Wednesday 9 May on SBS:

  • Live show at 5am AEST
  • Prime time show at 8pm AEST
