Buranovskiye Babushki (Russian: Бурановские Бабушки, pronounced [bʊˈranəvskʲɪɪ ˈbabʊʂkʲɪ]; Udmurt: Брангуртысь песянайёс, Brangurtısь Pesjanajos; meaning "Buranovo Grannies") is a Russian Udmurtian ethno-pop band containing eight elderly women. They are from the village of Buranovo (Brangurt), Udmurtia, halfway between the Volga and the Urals in Russia. Buranovskiye Babushki represented Russia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 in Baku, Azerbaijan where they finished second. The band consists of eight "grandmothers", but only six were allowed to appear on the Eurovision stage due to contest rules. The band performs most of their songs in the Udmurt language.
