After Genealogy’s first official Press Conference in Yerevan, Armenia, (April 27) the band has been invited to the office of the President of the Republic of Armenia for a special meeting. There was a big surprise waiting for them.
The great surprise was special for the 5 members of Genealogy representing 5 continents of the world. As was mentioned before the 5 members of the group are coming from different countries and continents of the world - Tamar Kaprelian (USA, America), Essai Altounian (France, Europe), Stephanie Topalian (Japan, Asia), Vahe Tilbian (Ethiopa, Africa) and Mary-Jean O’Doherty Vasmatzian (Australia).
Being of Armenian origin and carrying Armenian genetics Genealogy members have been granted Armenian Citizenship which they have applied for earlier. For receiving their Armenian passports they have been invited to the office of the president of the Republic of Armenia where the President Serzh Sargsyan himself handed in their Armenian passports.
During the meeting President Serzh Sargsyan showed his support to Genealogy members and encouraged the band for representing Armenia in the Eurovision Song Contest. He highlighted the importance of unity and togetherness. “If we are all gathered around one goal we will always succeed. I am sure, you will accomplish because you are united and you are sharing one goal. Your song is incredible and the concept as well,” said Serzh Sargsyan during the meeting.
Armenian representatives of the Eurovision Song Contest thanked the President for his warm welcome and encouragement assuring that this will give new strength to the participants, will double their excitement and keep the spirit up.
