Tennesse confirms. And I have a twist. As you know I'm holding a national selection for United States in Select Song Contest. The selection for the current edition is ready to go but I also prepared a national selection for next edition. The theme of that edition was: Nashville Music Festival. But something unexpected happened a few hours ago and made me change my plans: one of the five singers that I selected has been spotted. So here is my decision: 1) My national selection for USA at Select Song Contest this edition will take place as planned. 2) The national selection I prepared for next edition of Select Song Contest will take place here this edition.

MICHIGAN IS THOWING A JAVELIN
Back for a second go around at the contest, it is Sufjan Stevens, the legendary indie singer and songwriter who was born in Detroit and raised in Alanson, but has been based in New York for over the past 20 years. He wrote his first album while a student at Hope College in Holland, and his third album, entitled Michigan, featured exclusively songs about places, people, and events from across the state.
A month ago today, he released his tenth studio album entitled Javelin. In the Instagram post announcing the release of Javelin, Stevens said that the album was dedicated to "the light of my life, my beloved partner and best friend Evans Richardson, who passed away in April." This was the first time that the queer icon mentioned anything about his sexuality, and we encourage you to listen to the album in full.
As a part of his contract with MAB that he signed prior to OUSC 1, Stevens would be returning to compete in edition 10 of the contest. He decided to compete in MIVision for "shits and giggles," and as a way to honour his late partner, he will be performing the following song off of Javelin in what's likely to be Atlanta.

Mississippi confirms their song! Mississippi-born Diplo will represent the state alongside Jessie Murph and Polo G, with their ironically uplifting song, titled "Heartbroken". We wish them the best of luck in fellow Bible Belt state Georgia! (yes, that's the wrong Georgian flag, I am hilarious, I know)
