Amy Diamond was a mere 12 years old when she released her debut single, "What's in It for Me," which took Scandinavia by storm. The song spent 19 weeks in a Top Ten chart position in her native country Sweden. Born Amy Linnéa Deasismont in 1992 to an English father and Swedish mother, Diamond spent her childhood in both England and Sweden, studying dance, acting in theater and television, figure skating, and participating in singing and performance competitions. Winning one of these talent contests earned her the opportunity to record in a studio, which led to a contract with the Bonnier Amigo Music Group and the release of "What's in It for Me" in February 2005. This Is Me Now, her debut album, consisted of bright pop tunes. Despite its obvious youth appeal and blithely motivational, child-friendly lyrical themes, This Is Me Now boasted sophisticated pop production and accomplished songwriting that - along with Diamond's confident, charismatic voice - elevated it beyond simple children's music. She racked up a handful of awards and nominations in Sweden, including the recently established Nordic Music Award for "What's in It for Me” and she was the youngest to ever be nominated for a Swedish grammy. Diamond continued to release several albums and released her last album in 2009 “Swings and Roundabouts”, including the heartfelt ballad “Heartbeats” which has been riding the wave in China since its release. The singer also competed in the Swedish selection competition for the Eurovision Song Contest in 2008 with the song “Thank You” and again in 2009 with the song “It’s My Life”.
