The brand new boyband, made up of members Conor Davis, Joshua Regala, Conor O'Farrell, Neung Kelly and Harry O'Connell, are aged between 18-22.
The band was formed by music manager Louis Walsh, famed for creating iconic Irish boybands Boyzone and Westlife and for appearing as a judge on the TV shows Popstars and The X Factor.
They have made appearances on TV, such as RTÉ's Late Late Show, and performed their most recent gig in Abu Dhabi.
Next in Line have also been working hard in the studio over the last few months with critically acclaimed producers and artists.
The band said of their hopes to represent Ireland at the Eurovision Song Contest: "We are absolutely ecstatic to be given this amazing opportunity.
"The chance to represent Ireland in any capacity is special but to be able to do it in a competition that means so much to us would be a dream come true."
A total of six songs were selected for Eurosong 2024 from hundreds of entries received by RTÉ following a callout for submissions last year.
Earlier this week, Erica Cody, Ailsha, JyellowL, Isabella Kearney and Bambie Thug were confirmed as hopefuls to compete in the contest, which will be held in Malmo, Sweden in May.
All acts will compete on The Late Late Eurosong special on 26 January, 9.35pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player.
