Nemo
Nemo won the 68th Eurovision Song Contest with their song 'The Code'.Born in 1999 in Biel, a small bilingual town in Switzerland, Nemo has been playing the violin, piano and drums since they were a small child.
In 2016, Nemo became famous overnight through an appearance at SRF Virus (#Cypher), which went viral on social media. Afterwards they released two EPs - through which 7 songs made it directly onto the official Swiss Singles Chart.
2020 marked the beginning of a period of change for Nemo, when they started writing and producing for other artists, and also started releasing songs in English.
In their music, Nemo deals with themes such as gender identity, mental health and finding one‘s place in this world - and The Code specifically tells the story of their experience of coming to terms with their non-binary identity.
Nemo's triumph in Malmö is Switzerland's third win at the Eurovision Song Contest to date, following victory by Lys Assia in 1956 and Céline Dion in 1988.
Switzerland first participated in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1956, winning the very first edition of the competition, which it also hosted.
