  • Remember Monday is a country-pop trio comprising Lauren Byrne, Holly-Anne Hull and Charlotte Steele. The three first met while studying performing arts in sixth form in Farnborough, Hampshire.
  • Remember Monday's name originates from an inside joke that developed when they were in sixth form. Their music classes always fell on Mondays, which became a special day for them to spend time together and sing. Over time, this evolved into a running joke where they would say things like "Don't forget Monday" or "See you on Monday, you better remember."
  • Four years before they formed in 2013, Holly had a brush with fame, winning the Disney Channel UK talent show My Camp Rock at age 13. That early success led to her being signed - then dropped - by Disney.
  • Their rise to wider recognition came through TikTok, where they regularly posted covers, often filmed in car parks (or as Americans call them, parking lots).
  • In 2019, they competed on The Voice UK, making it to the quarterfinals under the mentorship of Jennifer Hudson. One of their standout performances was of "Kiss From A Rose" by Seal.
  • All three members have strong roots in musical theater. Holly has appeared in Phantom of the Opera and Les Misérables, while Lauren's credits include Six and Matilda. Charlotte made her West End debut at just 10 years old as Jane Banks in Mary Poppins before moving into choreography, vocal coaching, and eventually becoming deputy head of a performing arts college.
  • In 2023 the trio left their jobs to focus on the group full-time. Two years later, they were chosen to represent the UK at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 with " What The Hell Just Happened?" Remember Monday were the first girl group to fly the UK flag at Eurovision since Precious in 1999.
