Latvia’s musical icon, Dons, kicked off the day with a captivating rehearsal of his soulful power-ballad “Hollow” at Eurovision 2024. Dons, renowned in his home country for his musical prowess, delivered a vocal masterclass that left a lasting impact on both juries and audiences during the Supernova competition.

The staging for “Hollow” featured a striking centerpiece—a large circular prop, hollowed out, providing a powerful visual focal point. Dons began the performance standing inside this prop, showcasing a unique and impactful stage presence.

Dons sported his trademark royal blue sleeveless pantsuit, now enhanced with futuristic “robot abs,” further emphasizing the song’s emotive power. Backed by an LED wall adorned with gently pulsing lights and circles, the lighting effects were cleverly orchestrated—slow-moving blue spotlights during the verses transitioned to brighter, whiter lights in the chorus, creating a captivating atmosphere akin to searchlights that intensified the overall mood of the performance.
