History

Mrs. Einstein was founded in 1990 by De Meisjes (1987–90) members Saskia van Zutphen, Paulette Willemse and Suzanne Venneker.[1][2] The group usually performs in theatres, covering songs from all over the world in a different genre or with translated lyrics.[1]

In 1997, Mrs. Einstein was internally selected to represent the Netherlands in the Eurovision Song Contest. Their entry, "Niemand heeft nog tijd", was chosen through the national final Nationaal Songfestival 1997. In Dublin, the group received a total of 5 points, finishing in 22nd place out of 25 participants.[3]
