🇸🇪 SCARLET: “(“Sweet N’ Psycho”) is even more energetic”

Yesterday, after much speculation, Sweden’s SVT released the full list of artists that will participate at next year’s Melodifestivalen; Sweden’s longstanding Eurovision selection, that will chose its entry for Basel. We were on the ground in Stockholm, and Tim had a chance to speak to some of this year’s acts; including SCARLET, who will sing Sweet N’ Psycho.

Check out our interview with SCARLET here:

SCARLET will sing Sweet N’ Psycho at the fifth semi final in Jönköping on the 1st of March.

Who are SCARLET?

SCARLET are a metal duo who made their name in the Eurovision world last year when they participated at Melodifestivalen 2024, with the song Circus X. They ultimately lost out on a chance at the final, after coming fourth in the second chance round. The pair have been performing together since 2018, and have one album Obey the Queen.

Sweden’s Eurovision journey

In 1958, Sweden made their debut in the Eurovision Song Contest, with Alice Babs representing them with the song “Lilla stjärna” which placed fourth. Since their debut, the Scandinavian nation has managed to win seven times (1974, 1984, 1991, 1999, 2012, 2015 and 2023).
In 2024, Sweden were represented on home soil by Marcus and Martinus. As the host entry, their song “Unforgettable” did not need to compete in the semi-finals. At the close of voting in the grand final, they had received 174 points. 125 points were received by the juries, while the twins received 49 points by televoters.
