Bente Fokkens has a striking appearance, and a veritable smorgasbord of talents. She has been writing and performing since she was eleven, made an impression on The Voice Kids, and is also an in-demand actress. In January 2024, she played her first sold-out show in Paradiso, and that fall, released her highly acclaimed second album, Drift, she reinvented herself with some deeply personal work. It earned her an Edison nomination, two 3FM Awards, a spot at Noorderslag, and an extensive tour.
