It’s with great excitement that we can reveal that the artist who’ll be representing the UK at Eurovision 2023 in Liverpool is… Mae Muller!
Mae says: ”I’m SO excited to participate in Eurovision this year and represent the UK! I’ve loved watching Eurovision all my life, so to compete in such a massive music competition is simply brilliant.
“I’m a huge fan of so many of the artists that have found success at Eurovision, from ABBA to Måneskin! Sam Ryder was so amazing last year and proved the UK can be back on the left-hand side of the leaderboard!”
Having signed to Capitol Records UK (part of Universal Music Group), Mae continues to stand out. In 2022, she was nominated at the MTV EMAs and VMAs. Since then, her music has reached over two billion streams and 5.5 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
Mae co-wrote ‘I Wrote A Song’ with BRIT nominated songwriter Lewis Thompson (David Guetta, Joel Corry, and Raye – ‘Bed’) and Karen Poole, who has written for Kylie Minogue, Lily Allen, David Guetta and Alisha’s Attic. She explains: “I wrote, ‘I Wrote A Song’, a few months ago when I was going through a hard time and wanted to feel empowered about relationships, so for it to be chosen for this year’s UK Eurovision song is honestly a dream!”
