MME 2027 nominees

The 15 nominees for the Music Moves Europe Awards 2027 have been announced. Music fans are invited to vote for their favourite artist.

An international jury will select five MME Award winners and one Grand Jury Prize winner. The winners will be announced on 14 January 2027 in Groningen, the Netherlands, during Eurosonic Noorderslag (ESNS).

Congratulations to MOIO (Ireland) on being nominated for MME Awards 2027!

'The Nigerian-Irish singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist MOIO chases emotion with every lyric he pens, melody he sings, and beat, bassline, or guitar riff he plays. This pursuit has brought him to a space between genres, co-existing in the realms of R&B, indie, alternative, and soul. Because MOIO isn’t bound to any genre, each song keeps your ears pierced for this new version of him, eager to discover who is in front of you this time.' Music Moves Europe Awards 2027
