Nano Omar (or simply Nano, as an artist) is a Swedish singer-songwriter. His youth was somewhat troubled, ending in jail twice, but the future looks a whole lot brighter.

He released his debut single Lion in the spring of 2015, but he really came to prominence while performing in Melodifestivalen 2017, the Swedish national selection for the Eurovision Song Contest. On 11 March he’ll compete with 11 other contestants to represent Sweden in Kiev.

Even if Nano doesn’t win the final, he still produced a great song. After starting off like a Rag ‘N’ Bone Man or John Newman kind of track, it evolves into a combination of pop and drum & bass that could’ve been produced by Sigma or DJ Fresh. I love it!
