The sad news hit this morning, when local police stated that they found rock singer Vlatko Ilievski dead in his car. The incident took place in the capital Skopje. Police has been inspecting the place, handed the body over for autopsy, which will hopefully reveal how the singer lost his life.

In 2010, Vlatko graduated from Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Skopje. He previously played with the rock band Morality and, also in 2010, he took part in the national selection and came second. In his second attempt the year after, he won and made it to Eurovision in Düsseldorf, Germany. His death comes just a few days after he celebrated his 33rd birthday.
While listening to his Eurovision entry one more time, we would like to wish our condolences to family and friends.
