Mando participated in the 2003 Eurovision Song Contest for Greece with Never let you go and placed 17th. Five years later she returns with a brand new album and an entirely different look and sound.

Mando II is the artist’s twelfth album to date, the title symbolising a new beginning after a long break she took after Eurovision. The album contains twelve tracks, among them three by Pegasos, six by Mando herself and two by popular Danish producer Deekay. The song Breathe again is reported to have been submitted to the Greek broadcaster for this year’s local preselection for the Eurovision Song Contest. The album has already received favourable critics in Greece and enjoys quite a lot of airplay.

The official presentation of the album will take place this Wednesday at the Club Bocca in Voula, Athens.
