Moa Anna Maria Carlebecker is Cazzi Opeia, a Swedish DJ, singer and songwriter born in 1988. Her career has been incredibly fruitful, having composed for several artists (you can check a rather comprehensive list here). She has recently been part of the Melodifestivalen line-up with her song "I can't get enough", and the title is exactly how we feel about her song. It's an ethereal piece of pop with crafted strings and a super fun atmosphere.
The Masked Singer is really a sensation. So much so that Norway will go with two wolves to Eurovision: "Jim" and "Keith" are Subwoolfer, a duo of unknown artists.

The winners of the 2022 Festival di Sanremo were Mahmood and Blanco (Brescia, 2003)! They snatched the trophy with their single "Brividi", an emotional ballad that shies away from their urban tones. Their adventure together isn't over just yet: they'll represent Italy at the 2022 Eurovision on home soil!
Swedish singer Robin Bengtsson returned to the Melodifestivalen stage this year. And he did it with a bang! "Innocent love" is a retro-infused pop song with an anthemic chorus that will get stuck to your head!
Malik Harris is headed to Eurovision! The German singer has won the ticket to Turin with the song "Rockstars", a pop ballad with marking beats and an urban undertone that is really interesting. Speaking about his song Malik says: "It's a song that has incredible personal significance for me and offers a glimmer of hope in these difficult times, while also showing people that we're all in the same boat".
Our teenage selves are still trying to process this: The Rasmus are going to Eurovision! They won the Finnish National Final with the song "Jezebel", a potent rock track that is on par with their greatest hits. It's our favorite song of this year's festival, and of course, it's our song of the week!
Born in Maldon in 1989, Sam Ryder is a British sensation. With more than 12 million followers on TikTok and a seizable number across other social medias, he made a name for himself posting covers of other artists during the 2020 lockdown, as well as eleasing music of his own. Earlier this month, he was announced as the British representative at the 2022 Eurovision, and his song couldn't be received with a warmer welcome. "Space man" is a power ballad that describes life on Earth as seen from above, and crowned with Sam's impressive vocal skills. We can't wait to see it live in May!

The track is an emotional love song with a beautiful instrumentation, elevated by Cornelia's raspy vocals.
