BIO

JELTE is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from Amsterdam. With influences from the eighties, funk, rock, he creates colorful and romantic pop with a contemporary sound. The songs come to life in an energetic live show where JELTE shares the stage with his five-piece band. When Jelte found little musical connection with the people around him, he was determined to play all the instruments on the album himself. On the first album, the songs take you into the world as a teenager, where themes such as insecurity, introspection and depression emerge, with a cautious look at the future. In his new music, the melancholy of the first album makes way for euphoria, joie de vivre and self-fulfillment.

Can't U Feel It

BAND

JELTE has played all the instruments himself on all his songs. During the JELTE live show, he plays with a five-piece band from home and abroad, each of whom also has individual careers in other projects.
