Zoë Më represents Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest in Basel
Zoë Më makes bilingual pop - she sings in French and German. The Fribourg native was honored as "SRF 3 Best Talent" in 2024. Thus, the 24-year-old, Basel-born Më, follows in the footsteps of Nemo at the Eurovision Song Contest; Nemo was also honored as "Best Talent" by SRF 3. Zoë Më also received this award in Western Switzerland with the "RTS Artiste Radar".
Zoë Më Directly in the Eurovision Song Contest Final
An advantage for Switzerland could be the multilingualism of Zoë Më's songs: Although French is not her native language, she transcends Swiss language barriers in her songs. On her EP "Dorienne Girls", which she released last year, she sings with a delicate voice and also switches languages within songs. Musically, the artist moves between delicate pop, sometimes featuring anthemic choruses that captivate. Her music has been described as "Chill Noir". Zoë Më has already performed her songs as a support act for Joya Marleen. Fans of the latter are likely to become fans of Zoë Më as well, who has a similar, albeit less rock-oriented, musical style. Additionally, Zoë Më has already been seen at various festivals, such as the renowned Montreux Jazz Festival.
Because Switzerland is hosting the ESC 2025, the artist is directly qualified for the final on May 17. The song she will perform at the TV event, which is one of the largest worldwide, is to be announced on Monday morning. Austria will be represented by the countertenor Johannes Pietsch under his stage name JJ, who presented his song "Wasted Love" to the press on Wednesday. The contribution for Germany also comes from Austria: The Viennese sibling duo Abor & Tynna emerged as winners from the German preliminary round with the song "Baller".
