The story of NEXX began already in the end of 2001 when Robert and Sebastian met while auditioning for another pop project. They both got the job and went on tour in 2002/2003. When the job was finished they decided that they wanted to continue working together and so in the end of 2004 they started to write new songs in their studio in Stockholm.

Robert has previously been staring in musicals in Sweden and hes been backing up other artists as dancer and singer. Sebastian is a top DJ in the world of nightclubs in Stockholm. They both always had a passion for clubbing and spending time at the dance floors so they got influenced by artists like Madonna, Basement Jaxx, Kylie Minogue and disco artists from the 70s and 80s.

In December 2004 Robert started rehearsals with the world famous ABBA musical MAMMA MIA! in Stockholm where he became very good friend with Johanna "Jo" Eriksson who also was part of the cast. Shortly after the premiere of MAMMA MIA Jo put her vocals on Roberts and Sebastians songs. She went into the studio and she basically blew Rob and Seb away. NEXX was born! In 2007 they got in touch with Swedish top producer Jonas Von Der Burg (September, Danny, Alcazar) and together with him and Ivar Lisinski (Bananarama, Danii Minogue) they wrote their 2008 hit single Synchronize Lips. Followed up by "Paralyzed" in the end of same year.
