Biography
Naré Kerobyan was born on January 28, 2013, in Yerevan, Armenia, into a family passionate about art and culture. From a very young age, she demonstrated an exceptional ear for music and a strong inclination toward performance. At four, she began taking her first singing and vocal training lessons—a path she later complemented with formal studies in music theory and piano at a local music school. She grew up in an environment where both traditional Armenian music and international pop played a significant role.
Her artistic development has gone hand-in-hand with intensive dance training. Aiming to become a well-rounded artist, Naré enrolled in urban and contemporary dance academies, spending years honing her technique, flexibility, and stage presence. This preparation enabled her to successfully participate in various regional talent competitions, charity shows, and children's television programs in Armenia, gaining valuable on-camera experience and demonstrating a level of performance maturity remarkable for her age.
On a personal and academic level, Naré balances her secondary school studies with her artistic projects. Those who know her describe her as a cheerful, perseverant, and highly sociable girl. She is passionate about fashion, costume design, and photography—hobbies she often explores by creating visual concepts with her friends. In her downtime, she loves traveling through Armenia's countryside with her family, hiking, baking, and caring for the family pets.
Musically, the young artist draws inspiration from global pop stars such as Dua Lipa, Ariana Grande, and Beyoncé, meticulously analyzing their performances and choreography to incorporate elements into her own style. Her major ambition within the music industry is to build a future career as a singer-songwriter and producer, composing her own material and exploring the fusion of modern pop with her country's folk instruments.
Her breakthrough onto the international stage was the result of a long journey of perseverance, following four unsuccessful attempts in her country's selection processes. Ultimately, the public broadcaster AMPTV selected her—via an open call that drew over a hundred candidates—to represent Armenia at Junior Eurovision 2026. Her entry, "BOO!", is a dynamic, bilingual pop track (featuring Armenian and English) created by a team of renowned songwriters, including Lilit Navasardyan and Grigor Kyokchyan. The song perfectly reflects her energetic personality, combining a danceable rhythm with festive lyrics designed to delight the audience.
