The worst kept secret in the music business has been unveiled as British country-pop group Remember Monday are officially confirmed by the BBC as the UK’s Eurovision Song Contest entry for 2025. The trio, made up of school friends turned musicians Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull and Charlotte Steele, will perform up-tempo number What the Hell Just Happened? in Swiss host city Basel.
The trio formed in 2013 and have taken part in competitions including The Voice as well as releasing an extensive number of tracks over their twelve years in the industry. The group shared their excitement, noting: “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.”
Sonically, What the Hell Just Happened? is something of a musical smorgasbord with producer Billen Ted channelling all from Wilson Phillips to Chappell Roan via Queen in the energetic track. The number is penned by an expansive team including Charlotte Steele, Holly-Anne Hull, Julie Aagaard, Kes Kamara, Lauren Byrne, Sam Brennan, Thomas Stengaard and Tom Hollings. One thing that is clear from the girls’ live performances is that they have undeniably impressive vocal chops.
Where this will land on the Eurovision Song Contest leaderboard is anyone’s guess – but this is an entry that we are happy to get behind.
