Nolan was born in Dublin, Ireland, to Tommy (26 September 1925 – 1998) and Maureen Nolan (15 December 1926 – 30 December 2007), as the fourth of eight children, including sisters Anne, Denise, Linda, Bernie, and Coleen, and brothers Tommy and Brian respectively. The family lived in Raheny, a suburb of Dublin, before moving to Blackpool, England in 1962.

Maureen, along with her sisters, were a part of the singing group The Nolans. The Nolans had a number one hit in 1979 with their song "I'm in the Mood for Dancing". It charted at no.2 on Irish music charts, and was no. 1 on charts in Japan and South Africa. Sister Anne left the group between 1980 and 1982, with Coleen stepping in for her. They won the 1981 Tokyo Music Festival with their song "Sexy Music".
The Nolans reunited as a five-piece (including Bernie, Coleen, Linda and Maureen) for one-off performance of "I'm In the Mood for Dancing" first for BBC One's All Time Greatest Party Songs, hosted by Tess Daly, which aired on 17 December 2005 and again on 9 August 2007 on Loose Women, but dismissed any immediate prospect of a full-scale reunion. In 2009, Maureen joined her sisters for a reunion tour. The group reunited again in 2020, when they reformed, and remained in the group until its disbandment in 2022.
