Emerging as a distinct force in the Swiss music scene, Veronica Fusaro is set to take the global stage as she reveals her entry for the 70th Eurovision Song Contest, taking place this May in Austria. Originally featured on her acclaimed album ‘Looking For Connection’, she now presents a grittier, rock-leaning version of ‘Alice’, immediately demonstrating how she will stand out in the competition with her distinctive blend of sharp lyricism, emotional clarity, and a seamless balance between genres.
Despite its alternative sound, ‘Alice’ is a captivating and memorable Eurovision entry. It feels both fresh and nostalgic, yet it easily has the potential to become a global hit even without the platform of the contest. With urgent guitar riffs, a darkly infectious melody, and an effortlessly cool undertone, Fusaro brings a powerful edge to Switzerland’s entry, placing her artistry exactly where it belongs – in front of an audience of millions. Daring, shamelessly melodic, and infused with swagger, this future Swiss anthem is already enticing long before she takes to the stage.
Born and raised in Thun, Bern, Fusaro has built a reputation as a truly distinctive voice – admired for her confident stage presence while never shying away from vulnerability in her songwriting. This moment marks a full circle for the rising star, who was named “Best Talent” by Swiss national radio SRF 3 back in 2016. The recognition launched a run of over 500 live performances across Switzerland and beyond, including appearances at Glastonbury and the Montreux Jazz Festival, as well as chart success with her debut album All The Colors of the Sky.
Since then, she has quickly become a recognisable voice in modern pop – and with the magnificent “Alice,” she looks set to soar gracefully.
