Sinéad Mulvey & Black Daisy
Ireland goes with a all-girl pop-rock band Black Daisy and the young female singer Sinéad Mulvey. According to them they will 'rock Russia' with their song Et Cetera!Sinéad Mulvey
21 year-old Sinéad Mulvey started singing professionally at the age of thirteen when she was picked from hundreds of girls for the lead role of Cinderella in a Dublin pantomine.
Her passion for singing and dancing set alight, she has been working consistently on her stage performance since, appearing in many high-profile productions and TV programmes in Ireland. Sinéad came very close to representing Ireland in the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest when she made it to the national final. She was delighted when her dream came true this year as her performance with Black Daisy saw Et Cetera top both the public and jury vote in this year’s Irish final.
Sinéad says, “I have been a Eurovision fan for as long as I can remember. Representing Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest is truly a dream come true for me and I can’t wait to Rock Russia with Black Daisy and Et Cetera!”
