Who: Nico Laska
Songwriter
Nico Laska is a Popternative artist who masterfully blends the worlds of pop and
alternative with unmatched authenticity. Since his debut in 2017 with the acoustically
driven EP FINE, Nico Laska has continually evolved, carving out a unique sound that
stands apart in the German music scene. Through his music, Nico aims to create a
home for those who often feel lonely—at his concerts, no one is truly alone.
His body of work, including the EPs FINE, Gone, and his debut album NI/CO, delves into
deeply personal and often hidden themes. Take his track “Add/ict,” for example: while it
might seem like a relationship song at first, it’s actually a reflection on his complex
relationship with the music industry. This knack for honest, layered storytelling has not
only earned Nico Laska a devoted fan base—affectionately known as the “Nico Laska
Gang”—but also a spot on the German album charts, peaking at #74.
