Biography
Italian musician and singer-songwriter popular in Italy and throughout the Spanish-speaking world, who has performed and released most of his albums in both Italian and Spanish.
Nek first gained international success in 1997, when he took part in the Sanremo Music Festival in the Big Artists section, and although he didn't win, the song "Laura non c'è" (in Spanish: "Laura no está") went on to become his international breakthrough as it became a major hit in Europe and Latin America that year. His fourth and million-selling album Lei, gli amici e tutto il resto was his first album to also be recorded in Spanish. Some of his hits include "Sei solo tu", "Almeno stavolta", "Lascia che io sia" and "Instabile".
Nek has performed three times at the renowned Sanremo song contest; first in the Newcomers section in 1993 with the song "In te" with which reached third place, in 1997 with "Laura non c'è" which reached seventh place, and after eighteen years at the 2015 season with the song "Fatti avanti amore" that reached second place.
