And it isn’t the band’s first time taking part in a televised competition after they entered The Voice back in 2019 and caught the eye of BBC Radio 2 Breakfast host Scott Mills when they were played on the station last year.

They have also performed at a string of major UK events including Country to Country, The Long Road and Buckle and Boots.

Remember Monday also boast a following of 524,000 followers on TikTok and 76.3k on Instagram.

It comes after last year’s act Olly Alexander joked that the next Eurovision act to represent the UK should make sure they ‘get a good therapist’ ahead of the competition. 

The Years And Years’ singer, 34, represented the UK in Malmö, Sweden last May with his raunchy track Dizzy, and while things appeared to be looking positive after the jury vote he sadly received a seemingly unfathomable no votes from the public.

The UK finished with a low score of 46, as fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their heartbreak as they insisted that the star ‘deserved better’ – in what some deemed a career-ruining moment for the singer and actor. 

Speaking about his experience competing in the contest on The Graham Norton Show last month, the host asked Olly: ‘Do you have any words of wisdom, don’t say don’t do it, any encouraging words of wisdom?’

The star then joked: ‘Maybe, just get yourself a really good therapist,’ as the guests and audience erupted in laughter. 

He added: ‘Yeah, good therapy as you will have a lot to talk about for years.’

Trying to compose his laughter, Graham added: ‘Oh ok, not the encouraging words of wisdom I had hoped for, but wise.’ 

However Olly and his team seemed to take the news in their stride as they were pictured laughing and cheering after the news was announced

After the show, heartbroken fans wrote: ‘No cause why tf did Olly Alexander get 0? y’all deserved better’; ‘Zero public points for the UK – my jaw DROPPED #Eurovision2024’

‘Really feel for Olly Alexander, to get 0 public votes for Eurovision is really harsh! Everyone hates the U.K! I think it’s no longer about music but about politics now. Congrats to Switzerland’.

However Olly and his team seemed to take the news in their stride as they were pictured laughing and cheering after the news was announced.

The star didn’t look disappointed as he celebrated with his dancers after the jam-packed performance.
