Since 2011 , Sunstroke Project has toured extensively and has worked more closely with their longtime label , Sens Music . An entry was made for SunStroke Project and Olia Tira to represent Moldova in the 2012 Eurovision Song Contest with the single " Superman " but it did not make the next stage of selection . SunStroke Project attempted to represent Moldova in the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest entering with two songs : " Lonely " and " Day After Day " , the latter with Michael Ra . Both entries qualified to the semi-final from the live audition round . However , as only one song could be chosen per artist , Sunstroke Project chose " Day After Day " to ultimately move forward . After qualifying from the semi-final , they finished third in the national final . SunStroke Project attempted to represent Moldova in the 2017 Eurovision Song Contest once again , with the upbeat electro-house song " Hey , Mamma ! " . The band came in first place after a tight voting procedure , qualifying them to represent Moldova in the Song Contest in May . They reached third place with their performance in the 2017 competition , giving Moldova their best result in the contest . On returning to Moldova , SunStroke Project was awarded the Order of Honour by the President of Moldova Igor Dodon
