In 2014 they were chosen to represent Greece in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 along with the rapper RiskyKidd with the song "Rise Up".[2] "Rise Up" came 20th in the Final of Eurovision 2014. This result lead to a disbelief of their quality of the musical skills, due to the poor vocal performance and lack of personality. Their following single "In a world without you" was released on June 25, 2014 receiving positive reviews from music critics. The song was a collaboration with the Greek Dj Nicolas Costa who also wrote the song while the production was done by him and Freaky Fortune.
