Sinplus

Music career

Sinplus was formed in 2009 by brothers Ivan Broggini (guitar) and Gabriel Broggini (vocals). Inspired by their shared passion for music, they began writing and performing together, crafting a sound that blends raw energy with melodic hooks. Their name reflects their philosophy of embracing imperfection and striving for authenticity in their art.

In 2012, Sinplus represented Switzerland in the Eurovision Song Contest in Baku, Azerbaijan with the song "Unbreakable". The performance brought international exposure and marked an important milestone in their early career.

Following Eurovision, Sinplus’s early releases gained traction within Switzerland and led to opportunities to expand their audience across Europe.

Their subsequent release, Break the Rules (2021).
