Marty Zambotto: Manjimup’s Go-Jo walks the turquoise carpet at Eurovision in Basel, Switzerland

Manjimup-raised pop singer Marty Zambotto, better known as Go-Jo, has walked the turquoise carpet at the 69th Eurovision Song Contest in Basel, Switzerland.

The 29-year-old is scheduled to kick off the second semi-final with a performance of ******* pop banger Milkshake Man in the early hours of Friday morning, WA time.

Zambotto promised “tricks and treats” during his three minutes on stage, as well as a giant blender and at least one costume change.

The now Sydney-based West Aussie said he looked for to getting fans to “come into the world of the Milkshake Man”.

Walking the turquoise with the 37 delegates on May 11, Zambotto told Eurovision website Wiwibloggs that the song, written with Brisbane sibling band Sheppard, was “all about confidence and self-expression”.

“I want other people to see it and be like, ‘Wow, I want a taste of that’,” he said.

The former East Perth footballer has gone from living off-grid on his family’s farm near Manjimup to an intense schedule of press and promotional performances across Europe in the lead-up to Eurovision.

The first semifinal will be held on Tuesday, with Zambotto performing alongside favourites Austria, Finland and Malta in the second semifinal on May 15.
