The Buranovo Grannies are a long-standing favorite in Russia. The folk group is made up of six elderly women from a village in the Ural mountains, shaking a leg to a disco beat. The group is to represent Russia at the Eurovision song contest in Baku this year. They sing in their native Udmurt language and have plenty of young fans.
