TuralTuranX is an Azerbaijani musical duo consisting of twin brothers Tural and Turan Bağmanov (born 30 October 2000).[1] They represented Azerbaijan in the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 with their song "Tell Me More".
Tural and Turan Bağmanov are from Zaqatala in northwestern Azerbaijan. They first saw a piano at school and were so fascinated by it that they often secretly practiced songs.[2] Then their father bought them a used synthesizer. Later they also learned to play the guitar.[2] TuralTuranX first appeared in schools and at some events. However, after the death of their father, they temporarily stopped making music.[1]
Tural later moved to the capital Baku and founded the band TheRedJungle with a friend, with whom Turan also performed.[1] The brothers also performed as street musicians.[3]
On 2 February 2023, it was announced that TuralTuranX are among the last five candidates of Azerbaijan's internal selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2023.[4] On 9 March, they were selected as the Azerbaijani representatives for the Eurovision Song Contest.[5] They competed in the first semi-final on 9 May with their song "Tell Me More", but failed to qualify for the grand final, finishing 14th out of 15, scoring 4 points.
