This week Radio International's Interview Team JP and John Dawton are being joined via SKYPE once again by Andreas Lundstedt and Lina Hedlund who both were part of the group Alcazar. One of Alcazar's biggest successes was the world hit from 2002 "Crying at the Discoteque". But also the last entry of Alcazar at Sweden's Melodifestivalen was back in 2014 when Lina, Andreas and Tess as Alcazar made it successfully to the Grand Final with "Blame it on the Disco". As a surprise to the artists Tess Merkel "gatecrashed" the interview session to the surprise of  Lina and Andreas. Radio International reunited Swedish Band Alcazar during the interview session in the show today. 

Andreas Lundstedt was also part of the 2006 Swiss Eurovision entry called Six 4 One who performed the song "If we all give a little" written and penned by German Composer Ralph Siegel.

Lina Hedlund entered Melodifestivalen a few times with the last entry being in 2019 with the song "Victorious" which was written by Dotter and in 2020 Lina co-hosted Melodifestivalen together with David Sundin and Linnea Henriksson.

Tess Merkel, the third member of the former group Alcazar is part of the artist line-up for Melodifestivalen 2021.
