Hello Electric Nana, how are you? How is the eurovision world treating you so far?
Really, really well! I'm so excited and I just can't hide it. ;P

How would you describe yourself as an artist?
I'm an international songwriter that likes to mix up everything she likes with no prejudice or preconception at all.

Tell me about your name, why Electric Nana?
Nana was a nickname given to me because of my terrible memory: I always end up singing "nananana" instead of the proper lyrics of the songs. "Electric" came soon after, because I started using an electric guitar... I dont know, it sounded ok in my mind. XD

You are one of the 6 participants in the Spanish national selection. How did it all begin?
I sent my application pretty late, a couple of days before the closing date, and sent 3 songs I wrote for Eurovision. TVE chose 2, and we decided to choose the one you're going to listen soon enough. It was all pretty fast, and amazing. I still can't believe I'm one of the six finalists.

I know you cant say much about it but can you tell me something you haven’t told anyone about the song?
I would like to BE that song. Hahaha.

What can we expect to see on stage from you?
Lot's of fun.

Did you watch Eurovision 2015? Who were your favorites?
My favorites were Australia, Estonia and Sweden.

What do you like about Eurovision?
It's an annual celebration of music where Europe comes together to be awesome as hell. What's not to like.

What do you dislike about Eurovision?
It's only once a year.

Tell me the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word:
Eurodrama: exciting
Freedom: breathing
Stage: light
Alpaca: Peru
Fangirling: clapping
Nightmare: darkness
Spain: gift
Dreams: maps

What are your plans for 2016?
Recording my second album and finishing up my very first book!

Is there anything you want to say to close the interview?
Thank you so much for your time! I send you all of my love from Spain! Hope I get to see you guys soon! ;)
