The artist who grew up near the WA town Manjimup is now based in Sydney and he’s amassed a huge online following. He’s best known for his viral hit Mrs Hollywood that has to date received over 60 million digital streams and one billion views online.

As it was revealed that Go-Jo would represent Australia in 2025 the artist shared his excitement saying it was “an absolute dream come true to represent such a beautiful and diverse nation”.

“I’ve never been more excited to share my art and vision with the incredible Eurovision fans around the world.” he said.
