Nemo

Singer / rapper Nemo is best known for winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2024 with the song "The Code.” Born Nemo Mettler in Biel in the canton of Berne, Switzerland, on August 3, 1999, they learned piano, violin and drums as a child and then made their debut in 2012 in the musical Ich war noch niemals in New York, before taking part in Die grössten Schweizer talente (2015). That same year, their debut EP Clownfisch reached #95 in the Swiss charts, while the following EP, Mömant-Kids (2016), was home to the track "Himalaya" (number 27). This first hit single was followed a year later by the song "Du,” taken from the Fundbüro EP (2017), which reached number 4. Crowned winner of the Prix Walo in the revelation of the year category, Nemo went on to win five trophies at the Swiss Music Awards, one in 2017, and four the following year, including Best Male Artist. After studying singing at Zurich University of the Arts, Nemo moved to Los Angeles, California in 2020, then to Berlin in 2021, abandoning the German language for English in their pop and rap songs. In 2023, the self-defined non-binary personality saw their song "The Code" selected for the Eurovision Song Contest. The song, then ranked number 22 in Switzerland, won the competition - held on May 11, 2024, in Malmö, Sweden - with a clear lead over the other competitors.
