All-girl rock group Reddi came together to enter Denmark's Eurovision competition Dansk Melodi Grand Prix.

They were brought together and formed by recording artist and producer Chief1 and went on to be victorious and win the right to represent Denmark.

The group consists of vocalist, keyboard player and guitarist Siggy and dummer Ihan from Denmark, while bassist Ida and guitarist Agnes were born in Sweden.

Ihan will be showing her bandmates the ropes when it comes to Eurovision, as she's previously been on the famous stage. Back in 2012, Ihan was one of the musicians accompanying Danish act Soluna Samay for her performance of Should've Known Better.

Others into the Scandi music scene might be familiar with Ihan thanks to her other band, LIGA.

What is Denmark's Eurovision 2022 song called?

Reddi's The Show certainly delivers on the dramatic front, as it begins as a slow piano ballad, before transforming into a rock track.

The punk-meets-pop vibes continue with loud drums and bass, as the foursome sing about their experience of being disregarded in the music industry because of their gender - but always bouncing back.

Where did Denmark come in the 2021 Eurovision Song Contest?

Denmark's Eurovision 2021 act Fyr & Flamme, aka Jesper Groth and Laurits Emanuel, took to the stage in Rotterdam.

They were unable to make it all the way to the Grand Final and were sent home in 11th place at the semi-finals stage.

However, Reddi are hoping to turn the country's fortunes around and make it all the way to the Grand Final.
