Ukraine’s representatives at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025, Ziferblat, have released their latest album, “Of Us”.
Ahead of Eurovision 2025, Ziferblat have released a new album. The album consists of seven tracks, including their Eurovision 2025 entry, “Bird of Pray”, as well as the song, “Place I Call Home”, which they competed with at last year’s Ukrainian national selection, Vidbir 2024. Speaking on social media, the group states that the album is:
“Our first English-language work, which was created in the shortest possible time of music making. This forced us to make a minimum of adjustments, mostly presenting everything to you as it is.”
Ziferblat won the right to represent Ukraine at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 after winning Vidbir 2025. They are the first trio to represent Ukraine at the contest. The group will perform 5th in the first semi-final on May 13 with their entry “Bird of Pray”.
Last month, we had the opportunity to speak with Ziferblat at Eurovision In Concert in Amsterdam. You can watch the interview here:

Ukraine first participated in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2003, when Oleksandr Ponomariov performed “Hasta la vista”. The following year Ruslana brought the country their first win with the song “Wild Dances”. It was a feat that would be replicated in 2016 by Jamala with her song “1944”; her emotionally charged song scored a record 534 points to take victory in Stockholm. In 2017 O.Torvald represented the country on home soil with the song “Time”. The group finished in 24th place, Ukraine’s worst result at the contest to date. Kalush Orchestra gave Ukraine their third victory in 2022 with “Stefania”. Ukraine is one of two remaining countries with a 100% semi-final qualification record.
