Who is interested in representing Ireland at Eurovision 2016? Well a familiar name to Irish people has announced her intention to get to Stockholm.

De Dannan (originally Dé Danann) is an Irish folk music group. They were formed by Frankie Gavin (fiddle), Alec Finn (guitar, bouzouki), Johnny “Ringo” McDonagh (bodhrán) and Charlie Piggott (banjo) as a result of sessions in Hughes’s Pub in An Spidéal, County Galway.

They named themselves Dé Dannan after the legendary Irish tribe Tuatha Dé Danann. Michelle Lally formerly of De Dannan has recorded a song with the hope of representing Ireland for Eurovision 2016.

More details to follow on Michelle’s song. What do you think we could expect from Michelle’s song for Eurovision?
