Interview with Ari Olafsson (Iceland 2018):  Iceland was represented at the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 by then 19 year old Arie Olafsson who won the Icelandic National Final and with this the ticket to Lisbon and the Eurovision Song Contest. Unfortunately, not a good result for Iceland only coming 19th in Semi Final 1. Arie was guest artist in the 2018 edition of the Eurovision Club Germany convention 2018 last November in Cologne, Germany where JP caught up with the singer. Very talented and a great singer Arie now studies music arts in London. You can hear that interview and more details of his career development on the show this week.
