Remember Monday have been announced as the UK's entrant for the 2025 Eurovision Song Contest.
The country-pop trio, comprising best friends Charlotte Steele, Lauren Byrne and Holly-Anne Hull, confirmed the news earlier today during an appearance on The Scott Mills Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2.
Formed in Surrey in 2023, they're known for their strong vocals and three-part harmonies. They'll perform their upbeat song What the Hell Just Happened?, which deals in pop and rock influences, at the St. Jakobshalle arena in Basel, Switzerland between May 13 and 17. The group said:
"What The Hell Just Happened is exactly how we’re feeling right now! It’s all very surreal; our friendship goes so far back, and we definitely never imagined that we’d be doing anything like this. When you’re a kid and people ask you what you want to be when you grow up, an absolute classic is “I wanna be a pop star”, so the fact that we’re getting the chance to live that dream as three best friends is just wild.
"We’re going to be the first girlband to represent the UK since 1999, which feels like such a crazy honour. We’re going to bring loads of fun, energy and hopefully do something that you won’t have seen before on the Eurovision stage…. We honestly can’t wait to experience this with all of the other incredible artists from around the world, and hopefully make everyone back at home feel proud! This is really the music World Cup and we’ll do our best to bring it home!"
Since their formation, Remember Monday have released several singles, as well as two EPs, 2023's 'Hysterical Women' and 'Crazy Anyway' in 2024.
Last year, Years and Years frontman Olly Alexander's song Dizzy saw the UK come 18th at the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmo, Sweden. Switzerland's Nemo went on to win the trophy with the song The Code.
