Hurricane

Hurricane, also known as Hurricane Girls, is a Serbian girl group formed by Zoran Milinković in November 2017, which originally consisted of the three members Sanja Vučić, Ivana Nikolić and Ksenija Knežević. In 2022, the three original members left the group and were replaced by three new members, being Jovana Radić, Sara Kourouma and Miona Srećković.

Career
They sing mostly in their native language Serbo-Croatian and have also sung songs in English on some occasions. Following their participation in the 2020 edition of Beovizija (second semi-final night, 29 February; final night, 1 March), they were to represent Serbia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2020, with the song "Hasta La Vista". However, on 18 March 2020, the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 23 November 2020 it was confirmed that they would remain as Serbian representatives in the 2021 contest, and their song "Loco Loco", was presented in March 2021. They performed in the second semi-final of the contest on 18 May, where they qualified to the final, where they finished in 15th place, receiving 102 points.

On 4 May 2022, it was announced that the current line-up of the group would part ways after a farewell tour, after which the members would embark on solo careers. It was also announced that the casting process for new members would begin shortly, while retaining the Hurricane name. The group's last single as Vučić, Nikolić and Knežević, "Wow", was released on 19 June 2022.

The group, with its new lineup of Jovana Radić, Sara Kourouma and Miona Srećković, will participate in Pesma za Evroviziju 2023 with the song "Zumi zimi zami", in order to represent Serbia in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.
