"There were banners and everything," laughs Macroom native Bambie Thug, describing their experience winning the national leg of the Eurovision journey at the weekend.
The Cork artist, who will now represent Ireland at the Eurovision song contest in Sweden in May told the Ray D'Arcy show on RTE Radio 1 that standing on the stage after winning the public vote to represent their country was a moment they'll never forget.
