Pop-punk newcomer Evie Irie will perform the song “When I’m With You” with Isaiah Firebrace, who previously represented Australia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2017 with “Don’t Come Easy”. The song will be released on February 4th. The same day the eleventh artist competing in this year’s Eurovision – Australia Decides will be revealed. The wildcard artist is selected through TikTok.

If there’s one thing I like as much as creating music for my own project, it’s writing with other artists for their projects: it’s not work, it’s just fun!  So when Isaiah and his team asked me to do Eurovision with this random wonderful song called, “When I’m With You”, that we had such a great time writing together, I was seriously shook. I never EVER thought I’d have the chance to play at Eurovision and I just can’t say no to Isaiah.
