NEMO

Nemo, an up-and-coming talent from Biel, Switzerland, presents “This Body”, an intimate song that addresses the feeling of alienation in one’s own body. As a non-binary person, Nemo describes the liberation of feeling comfortable between feminine and masculine sides. With impressive lyrics and an innovative performance, Nemo takes his listeners into new worlds of sound. Currently based in Berlin, Nemo is working on new songs and will be appearing on “Sing meinen Song – Das Schweizer Tauschkonzert” from March next year. Born in Biel in 1999, Nemo first gained fame as a versatile musical talent, performing in the musical “Ich war noch niemals in New York” at the age of 13. In 2016, Nemo shot to fame with a viral performance in a national rap competition and achieved gold and platinum status in Switzerland with his EPs and hits such as “Ke Bock” and “Du”. Winner of four Swiss Music Awards in one night at just 18 years old, Nemo is breaking new ground in 2020, writing for other artists and releasing English-language songs that deal with topics such as gender identity and mental health. Nemo follows his gut feeling and convinces with talent and emotionality, which underlines his uniqueness in the music scene time and again.
