Uuden Musiikin Kilpailu<\/em> (UMK), the annual national tour of Finland will start in February. There are three semi finals and a grand final. Krista Siegfrids, in 2013 the Finnish candidate in Malm\u00f6, presents the shows along with Roope Salminen.<\/p>\n

The three semi-finals will be held on February 6, 13 and 20<\/strong>. Saturday 27 February follows the final show. Finnish broadcaster YLE makes the twelve candidates of UMK known on Tuesday 12 February. That publication will live through a livestream<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The presenters of service are no strangers. Roope Salminen<\/strong> UMK last year led al in good jobs, but this time he gets company of singer Krista Sigfrieds daughter<\/strong>. In 2013, she won the Finnish preliminary round and she represented her country with the wedding song Marry Me<\/em>, including lesbian kiss. The two went together on the photo and made a nice promotional video<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In 2015 the group represented Finland Pertti Kurikan Nimip\u00e4iv\u00e4<\/strong>t, but despite much media attention they ended up last in their semi-final.<\/p>\n
