The Swedish-based artist also received a Juno Award in the Best Dance Recording of the Year category in 2018 for her contribution to the Nick Fioricci track "Closer" . in 2019, she achieved what no other woman had done before: Laurell managed to sneak three songs into the final round of the Eurovision Song Contest - including "You Got Me" by Swiss singer Luca Hänni, which reached 4th place in the end. Barker also established herself as a solo artist in 2021. With her debut single "Habit" , the Canadian positions herself as a talented dance-pop interpreter.
