The Armenian national selection for Eurovision 2025, Depi Evratesil took place on 16th of February and PARG emerged as the winner and he will sing “Survivor” in Basel. It has been revealed that Armenian entry will be going through a revamp. The official version of their entry has been released today with the official lyric video.

Pargev Vardanyan, known by his stage name PARG, was born in Hayravank, a village on the shores of Lake Sevan in eastern Armenia. Although he spent much of his childhood and adolescence in Russia, he has returned to Armenia. His passion for music began early, singing in the church choir as a child. After moving to Volgograd with his family, PARG pursued his musical education by attending a music school and later graduated from the Volgograd State Institute of Theatre and Cinema with a degree in theatre arts and acting. His time in Russia allowed him to experiment with various genres and musical styles, ultimately leading him to form the indie-folk band Region Chronicles. The band performed throughout Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, and Armenia in the time between 2017 to 2019. After the band split, PARG embarked on a solo career, embracing a name he had carried since childhood which means “Gift.”

Instrumental for the revamped version of SURVIVOR has been reworked. The team behind Armenian entry includes: Alex Wilke, Armen Paul, Eva Voskanian, Joshua Curran, Martin Mooradian, Benji Alasu (one of the authors of last years winning entry The Code), as well as the famous Swedish composer and author of two time winning entries “Euphoria” and “Tattoo” by Loreen, Thomas G:son as well as PARG himself.
