Hungary: Viktor Király and Leander Kills return to A Dal

Hungary has released the list of participants for A Dal 2018, the competition which will be used once again to select the act for the Eurovision Song Contest. There are a lot of debuting acts in the show, but also some familiar names like Viktor Király, Peet Project, Reni Tolvai and Leander Kills.

Viktor Király back in A Dal

American trained singer Viktor Király is the biggest name in the line-up. He won talent show Megasztár in Hungary in 2008, and reached the last 24 in The Voice of America in 2015. In between, he had scored four number-1-hits in Hungarian charts.

Király made his A Dal debut in 2012 when he performed with his twin brother Benjamin and their sister Linda. Their song “Untried” placed fourth in the final. Viktor went solo in 2014 and reached the superfinal with his song “Running out of Time”.

Rock groups return

The rock group Leander Kills made it to the final this year with their song “Élet”. Peet Project was also a contender in 2017, reaching the semi final with “Kill Your Monster”. Reni Tolvai, a previous winner of the talent show Megasztár, had her best attempt in 2016 when her song “Fire” got eliminated in the semi finals.
