Ahead of Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2025, we had the chance to speak to Sissal, one of the eight finalists this year.
We spoke to Sissal about what it means to her to perform on the DMGP stage, the process behind the creation of her entry “Hallucination”, and the state of the Faeroese music scene.
Thank you Sissal for talking to us and best of luck in Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2025!
The final of the Dansk Melodi Grand Prix 2025 will take place in the Jyske Bank Boxen in Horsens on March 1. The show will be hosted by Stéphanie Surrugue and Sara Bro. The winning song will represent Denmark in the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 in Basel.
Saba represented Denmark at the Eurovision Song Contest 2024 with “Sand”. She finished 12th in the second semi-final with 12 points, leaving Denmark out of the final for the fourth year in a row.
