Nigel Sean
ESNS: 2014
As an eight year old boy Nigel Sean (21) played the role of Simba the lion in musical The Lion King. Nigel liked that place in the spotlights, and a couple of years later he reaches the finals of the Junior Songfestival. After finishing high school he continues his studies at two music academies, while supporting DJ's as an MC in the weekends. It's there that he meets DJ Thom van der Bruggen (19), who started composing and producing at the age of fourteen and has worked with a variety of Dutch musicians and worked on commercials for McDonalds, MTV and other companies. The two hook up and write the song Dubbel, which gets them signed to Universal Records. Their debut album is scheduled for a release in 2014.
