Brooke is competing for Ireland's 2022 Eurovision Song Contest spot with powerful new single 'That's Rich'.
Irish alt-pop artist Brooke rose to prominence after becoming a finalist on The Voice UK, and has since set her eyes on the nation's Eurovision Song Contest spot.
Kicking off the year with the new single, 'That's Rich' is inspired by the likes of fiery female artists along the lines of Blondie and Gossip. The track was premiered on Ryan Turbidy's RTÉ One radio show, and is slated to be performed for the first time on national TV on this Friday's Late Late Show Eurosong Special.
Empowering track 'That's Rich' insists on never settling for anyone who doesn’t fulfil your needs.
“I was reading Debbie Harry’s autobiography and wanted to encapsulate the attitude she portrayed in her life,” Brooke explains. Oozing with energy and charisma, the songwriter demonstrates her impressive vocal range over an intense beat and playful instrumentation.
Brooke has been making waves for her ferocious vocal delivery and dance worthy anthems. Rising to fame as a finalist of The Voice UK 2020, she wowed the judges and viewers with her show-stopping performances. Having duetted with Ella Eyre and been mentored by Grammy award-winning coach/singer Meghan Trainor, Brooke is closely following in their footsteps in the Irish music scene.
