Kristo

Early bird price 15 euros With influences from artists such as Jordan Rakei and Tom Misch, the Belgian artist Kristo brings a fresh and contemporary blend of pop, funk, soul, and R&B. His music couples a modern and refined production with quirky, musical craftsmanship. With infectious pop hooks, funky guitar lines, and a remarkably strong vocal performance, Kristo goes fully for a sound that is both authentic and pure, but also pop-sensitive and accessible. Kristo is the solo project of singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Kristiaan Deruytter. After his EPs Restore (2022) and Childhood (2024), his name grew, including Radio 1 support for ‘I Am Not Enough’. In recent years, he has been on various Flemish and Dutch stages and participates in large theater tours. From 2026, he will focus entirely on his solo project, live reinforced by a top band. We are proud that Kristo, as a born Kempenaar, chooses to release his debut album exclusively in Mol. As an opening act, he brings the young singer-songwriter Julia Schutten (Julia Adriana) along. A young, Dutch talent from Rotterdam who does backing vocals for, among others, BLØF and is also working on his way solo.
