About the band Wild Youth
The band Wild Youth came together in 2016. The band consists of four members: David Whelan (vocals/guitar), Conor O’Donohoe (keyboards/vocals), Ed Porter (guitar/vocals) and Callum McAdam (drums). Wild Youth was chosen to be Ireland’s representatives in a televised national final with the name “Eurosong 2023”. The band got the maximum number of points from both the jury as the public, and now they are on the road to the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 in Liverpoool, United Kingdom.
