Käärijä
Finnish rapper, singer, and songwriter Käärijä specializes in high-energy, beat-forward anthems that merge hip-hop with melodic pop, rock, and electronic. With a Top 30 debut (2020's Fantastista) under his belt, he shot to international fame in 2023 as Finland's representative at the Eurovision Song Contest, where his industrial-tinged song "Cha Cha Cha" won the public fan vote, even though he finished in second place overall.
Born Jere Pöyhönen in Helsinki, he grew up in Vantaa, fostering his love of music by learning drums and production in his teens. After releasing a series of indie singles in 2016, he signed with Monsp Records in 2017, issuing "Koppi tules" b/w "Nou roblem" that same year. His first EP, Peliä, landed in 2018. Two years later, Pöyhönen issued his first studio album, Fantastista, which rose to number 21 on the Swedish charts. A series of singles kept him active in the following years until 2023, when he entered the fray to represent Finland at Eurovision with his song "Cha Cha Cha." Co-written with Aleksi Nurmi and Johannes Naukkarinen, the Rammstein-indebted, industrial pop rouser finished in first place during national competition, sending him to Liverpool that May. Quickly becoming a fan favorite with his playful attitude and irreverent approach, he eventually placed second with over 500 points, despite securing the public vote with almost 400 points. "Cha Cha Cha" went on to chart across Europe.
