I live in Iowa and have been following Eurovision since 2007, when I discovered Eurovision on YouTube. The first Grand Final I watched was in 2013, and have been a fan ever since. I enjoy following Eurovision artists on the Billboard charts (which I have been following since American Top 40 was on the radio in the 1970’s).
Mike Ledgerwood
Mikle D. (Mike) Ledgerwood has been called a “Professor of Eurovision” and has been interviewed and presented at professional conferences on ESC. He first became acquainted with the competition in France in 1979 while teaching English in Nice and became reintroduced to it in 2010 by an impresario friend from the UK and South Africa. He attended the 2019 contest in Tel Aviv, Israel and has hosted and sung in homage concerts at his previous University. And would he love to go back to Eurovision in any capacity? One word: YES!
Michelle-Louise Burrows
Born in Canada but raised in Liverpool, Michelle-Louise has been a Eurovision fan since the tender age of eight when she tuned in accidentally and saw the contest on television. Her earliest Eurovision experience is Black Lace with “Mary Ann” and the first time she watched the contest in full was the following year. A former model and a veteran of seeing no less than ten Eurovisions in the flesh, her enthusiasm for Eurovision has never dimmed. Of Swiss descent, fluent in six languages, and vastly experienced in managing people and groups, she is the ideal contact person for both the North America and Switzerland Eurovision Communities. Outside of Eurovision, her passions range from her family, to learning foreign languages, to Liverpool Football Club.

I live in Southern California and, while I’ve known about Eurovision for several years, I’ve been an active fan since 2012 when Loreen first won.
Tony Tran
I’ve been a Eurovision fan since 2012. I was visiting my family in Düsseldorf during a spring break from university studies when I first heard of ESC. My favourite entries are “We Could Be The Same” by maNga and “We Belong” by Kathy Kirby. I enjoy the contest as it brings artists I would never have heard of here in the USA. It’s also a great way to collaborate with other social clubs for watch parties and share moments. Other things I enjoy are playing board games like Catan or going to the cinema. These are great ways to connect with others
