about
Teele Viira (born on 1988) is an Estonian singer. She started her musical training at the age of 16 under the guidance of Laine Lehto. In 2005 she participated in an Estonian TV-show named "Kaks takti ette" and 3 years later as a member of Nuku- ja Noorsooteater (eng: Doll and Youth Theater) in another TV-show named "Laululahing" (eng: Battle of Songs). After graduating from high school, in 2007 she entered Georg Otsa nimeline Tallinna Muusikakool (eng: The Music school named by Georg Ots), learning there pop & jazz songs. In 2011 at the contest of Estonian Song 2011 (est: Eesti Laul 2011) she appeared as a background singer of "Rockefeller Street", the winning song that made it to the Eurovison. But later in favor of another competition she had to refuse the opportunity to go to Eurovison. So in 2011, at the age of 23, she got to the finals of the fourth season of "Eesti otsib superstaari" (eng: Estonian is Looking for a Superstar), but couldn't make it to the winner pedestal and dropped out, therefore getting the 5th place. In that TV show she got to perform/cover next songs: "Sex on Fire" by Kings of Leon; "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell; "Armastan vaid sind" by Ivo Linna; "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)" by Dead or Alive; Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach"; "Close to You" by The Carpenter; "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns N' Roses and "Tango" by Ruja.
