Nyco Lilliu is the brother of Pierrick Lilliu, a finalist on La Nouvelle Star in
2005. He made his debut in 2005 on the album Besoin d'Espace, where he duetted
on "Comme un frère ", which he composed himself. Nyco Lilliu went on to record
the album Dimmi Perché for Mercury in 2007. Composed of songs in Italian, the
album went largely unnoticed. Nyco Lilliu was hired to play the role of Friar
Tuck in the musical Robin Hood in 2012, and took the opportunity to relaunch his
own career with a new song sung in Italian, "Tu ed io più lei".
