In 2024, his song "Terug in de tijd" was number one in the Netherlands for six weeks.

Career

Born in Haarlem and raised in Zandvoort, Berendse never had a professional ambition to be a singer. He worked at a sandwich shop. Then, on his 19th birthday, Berendse began singing during his party. [2] While it started as a joke, he would continue to sing at parties on weekends. [3] He finished his education at Hotelschool The Hague, then took singing lessons, performed at bars and wrote songs to develop his skills as a musician. [4]

In 2015, he participated in the SBS6 talent competition Bloed, zweet & tranen, but was eliminated after one episode. [5] He released two self-financed singles, which were picked up by AVROTROS and helped him sign with the label Dino Music. He released his debut album Het einde van het begin in 2018. [3] Berendse had a stable fanbase with songs such as "Zin in jou" and "Lust", allowing him to sell out at a concert at Amsterdam's AFAS Live in November 2023. [6]

Berendse's song "Terug in de tijd" went viral on TikTok in May 2024. In August, it reached number one on the Dutch Top 40, where it stayed for six weeks. [7] [8] The success of the song led to him playing two shows at the Ziggo Dome in June 2025. [4]
