Ireland goes crazy

“It’s crazy!” said the lead artist of the Irish band Sinead Mulvey, amazed by the size of the Russian stage. “Back in Ireland we normally sing in a small setting, but here the stage is so huge” listen. The Irish band said that in spite of some minor sound and light problems their first rehearsal had been quite a success.

Since Malvi and her ‘Black Daisy’ partners are fairly young, the group was asked to explain about the beginning of their singing career. Sinead said that she made her first debut at the age of ten and then was singing in the children’s band Spice Kids styled after the Spice Girls listen.

A journalist from Russia continued the theme by asking the singers if when kids they ever had to sing standing on a chair in front of their relatives. “When I was young, my granny used to give me some money for singing”, one of the band members confessed.

Today girls are happy to represent their country at the contest that they used to follow as fans for many years listen. “We even used to bet on the winner back then, and now they are betting on us”, they said.

The Irish delegation was represented by: Julian VIGNOLES (Head of Delegation), Sinead MULVEY (lead artist), Nicole BILLINGS (Electric guitar & Backing vocals), Asta MILERIENE (Drums), Lesley-Ann HALVEY (Bass-player + Backing vocals), Jenny NEWMAN, (backing artist).
