Mae Muller is ready to slay the Eurovision stage with her break-up banger I Wrote A Song. After an “extensive” search for the successor to Sam Ryder, Muller was revealed as the UK’s entry for the annual extravaganza earlier this month.
The British singer-songwriter, from London, is best known for featuring on Neiked’s 2021 nu-disco/funk anthem Better Days, which reached the top 40 in both the UK and U.S.
