	Musicians - Lisa Andreas

Lisa Andreas, born December 22, 1987 is an English-Cypriot singer from Kent. At age 16, she represented Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest 2004 and came fifth with her performance of "Stronger Every Minute". She was the youngest artist taking part in the competition.

Her father is English and her mother Greek Cypriot. She was born in England but christened in Cyprus. She lived in Nicosia for two years as an infant, but returned back to Britain after her grandfather had health problems. She rocked the Eurovision with her rendition of "Stronger Every Minute", proving that racy costumes and raunchy dance routines were not necessary to do well in the competition. Later the performance was used by the organiser's EBU to prove this fact, after criticism that the show was too focused on performance only. Andreas was the only person onstage for her performance and was likened by one broadcaster to a young Barbra Streisand.
