Inis Neziri (Albanian pronunciation: [inis nɛziɾi]; born 12 January 2001) is an Albanian singer-songwriter. She has emerged victorious at numerous music competitions including the Golden Stag Festival and New Wave.
Her music career started in 2013, when she won the fifth edition of the Albanian children's talent show Gjeniu i vogël [sq].[1] In December 2017, she placed third in the 56th edition of Festivali i Këngës with the song "Piedestal";[2] the following year, at the age of 17, she was awarded the Best Duet award at Kënga Magjike, making her one of the youngest artists to be awarded at both major Albanian music competitions.[1] In September 2018, she won the Golden Stag Festival in Brașov, Romania,[3][4] while in August 2019, she won the New Wave contest in Sochi, Russia; during both competitions, she performed multiple songs, including "Piedestal".[5]
