Dervish’s Cathy doesn’t dwell on Eurovision ‘blip’

They came last in 2007, but a new album marks 24 wonderful years on the road, says Siobhán Cronin

DERVISH singer Cathy Jordan has never watched her performance in the 2007 Eurovision.

It’s not because the traditional band came last; she never likes to see herself on the television. Although Dervish fielded harsh criticism afterwards, Cathy says being in the contest did “far more good than harm”.
