Eurovision 2025: UK entry revealed as the voice UK girl band remember monday
With the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 just weeks away, excitement is mounting as the UK’s entry has reportedly been unveiled. After weeks of speculation, it has now been claimed that the BBC has selected country-pop trio Remember Monday to represent the nation in the competition.
A new direction for the UK at eurovision
According to The Sun, the female trio—who first gained recognition on The Voice UK in 2019—will take the stage in a significant departure from the UK’s recent trend of Eurodance and pop anthems. Instead, Remember Monday is set to introduce a fresh country-infused sound to the competition.
A source revealed: “As ever, the competition to represent the UK has been fierce. This year, bosses have opted to shake things up and send a female trio, Remember Monday. Their song is a stark change from Olly Alexander’s 2024 entry, but the girls are sure to get the nation behind them.”
The band consists of Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull, and Charlotte Steele. Despite being eliminated in the knockout rounds of The Voice UK, the trio has since built a strong fan base. They have performed at high-profile events such as the British Summer Time Festival in Hyde Park and boast an impressive online following, with over 524,000 TikTok followers and 76,000 on Instagram.
Teasing big plans for 2025
The group had already hinted at major developments for the year ahead. In a New Year’s post on social media, they excitedly shared: “We have had the most amazing year and truly can’t thank everyone enough for supporting us! We have been super quiet because we have been busy working on something hehehe! 👀🪩 2025, we are very, very ready for ya!”
Their fans were quick to respond with messages of support and excitement. One follower, Clare, commented: “You’re awesome, and I’m so happy you’re getting the attention and praise that you all deserve!” Another wrote: “Looking forward to great things for you gals in 2025!”
A strong musical background
Remember Monday has already released several songs, including their EP Crazy Anyway. Their most popular track on Spotify, Famous, has garnered over 78,000 streams. Their signature blend of country and pop sets them apart from previous UK Eurovision acts, potentially offering a fresh appeal to European audiences.
The choice of a girl band aligns with earlier reports that the BBC was keen on sending a female group to Eurovision. Eurovision Fun previously hinted at this direction, stating: “Exclusive: According to our sources, the BBC has chosen a girl band to represent the UK at Eurovision 2025! The song is written by an experienced team, with one of the creators having a past Eurovision win! Stay tuned for the official reveal!”
Other speculated contenders
Prior to Remember Monday’s reported selection, speculation swirled around other potential acts, including the R&B girl group Flo. Formed by Jorja Douglas, Stella Quaresma, and Renée Downer, Flo has been compared to Destiny’s Child and has gained widespread acclaim. Their debut album Access All Areas reached number three on the UK charts and featured a collaboration with Wicked star Cynthia Erivo.

Flo had expressed their frustration at the lack of girl groups in the music industry, with Jorja Douglas stating in an interview: “This industry is difficult, especially in this day and age. Social media and negativity make it even harder for artists.” Many fans had speculated that they could be the UK’s Eurovision pick, but it now appears the BBC has opted for Remember Monday instead.
UK’s eurovision hopes
The UK has had a mixed track record at Eurovision in recent years. Olly Alexander, who represented the country in 2024 with Dizzy, finished 18th overall, securing 46 points from the jury but receiving zero from the public vote. His result followed a pattern of UK struggles in the competition, despite Sam Ryder’s impressive second-place finish in 2022 with Space Man.
When asked for advice on competing in Eurovision, Olly gave a humorous but blunt response on The Graham Norton Show: “Maybe just get yourself a really good therapist.”
As the official reveal of the UK’s 2025 Eurovision entry approaches, fans eagerly await confirmation from the BBC. With a fresh musical style and an enthusiastic fan base, Remember Monday could bring a much-needed shake-up to the UK’s Eurovision fortunes.
