Go_A (Шаблон:Lang-uk) is a Ukrainian folktronica band formed in 2012. The band represented Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021, performing "Shum", and placed fifth in the final.
The band's name was made by combining the English word "Go" with the Greek letter "Alpha", which symbolizes the beginning of everything, and the band's name is symbolic for "return to the roots".[1]
The band includes vocalist Kateryna Pavlenko from Nizhyn, keyboardist and percussionist Шаблон:Ill from Kyiv, Шаблон:Ill from Lutsk (also a member of rap group Kalush), and Ivan Hryhoriak from Bukovyna.[2]
The band sings exclusively in the Ukrainian language.[3]
History
The group was founded after keyboardist and percussionist Шаблон:Ill, not related to the poet of the same name, met folk singer Kateryna Pavlenko in 2012. In December 2012, the first song "Koliada" (Шаблон:Lang) was released.
The band gained attention after the release of the single "Vesnianka" (Шаблон:Lang), which won the national competition The Best Track in Ukraine 2015.[4] For six weeks, the song stayed at number one on the 10Dance chart of the Kiss FM radio station in Ukraine and was awarded Discovery of the Year by the radio station.[1]
In November 2016, Go_A released their debut album Idy na zvuk (Шаблон:Lang; Follow the Tune) via Moon Records Ukraine.[5] The album consists of ten songs, including "Vesnjanka".[6] In early 2017, they released a Christmas single "Shchedryi vechir" (Шаблон:Lang) in collaboration with Katya Chilly.Шаблон:Cn
Eurovision Song Contest (2020–21)
On 22 February 2020, Go_A, performing "Solovey", earned the right to represent Ukraine at the Ukraine in the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 by winning both the public vote and the jury vote in the Ukrainian national final.[7] However, on 18 March 2020, the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Suspilne announced that the band would represent the country in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021.[8] On 4 February 2021, it was announced that "Shum" would be the song that Go_A would be performing in Rotterdam at the Eurovision Song Contest. "Shum" placed fifth, with 364 combined public and jury points. However, in the public vote, "Shum" placed second with 267 points.[9] Band member Шаблон:Ill is also a member of rap group Kalush, which won the contest for Ukraine Шаблон:Escyr.
Post-Eurovision Song Contest (2021–present)
The band played shows in Europe in late 2022 and early 2023.[10] At the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, Go_A performed "Shum" during the flag parade in the show's final, alongside past Ukrainian entrants including Jamala, Tina Karol, and Verka Serduchka. They also appeared on stage during Duncan Laurence's performance of "You'll Never Walk Alone" during the interval.[11]
