London, Europe Brief News – Mae Muller will represent the United Kingdom at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.
The 25-year-old will perform her track I Wrote A Song at the competition in May, hoping to follow the success of Sam Ryder last year.
“To compete in such a massive music competition is simply brilliant,” she said, describing her involvement as “a dream”.
The UK is one of the last competing countries to reveal its song for 2023.
Muller was born in 1997 – the year the UK last won Eurovision. It has previously supported Little Mix on tour as well as working with artists like Aitch and Sigala.
“I’m a huge fan of so many of the artists that have found success at Eurovision,” Mae Muller said.
“Sam Ryder was so amazing last year and proved the UK can be back on the left-hand side of the leaderboard.”
She said he has given her some tips for the song contest.
After years of dismal results, Ryder turned things around for the UK at the 2022 competition, placing second to Ukraine.
“She has the most wonderfully warm and fun personality,” Tap management said. “We have always been fans of Mae for her voice, songs and star charisma, and when we heard I Wrote A Song, we were really taken by its impactful message – ‘songs as a form of therapy’ (a great message for the biggest song contest in the world!)”
Spiky break-up songs are Mae Muller’s trademark, and I Wrote A Song is no exception.
Over a polished club beat, she gleefully takes down a cheating ex, listing all the things she wants to do to him – make a scene outside his house, crash his car, generally make his life a misery.
