NEW to the Wasted Talent Roster:

 VITO

Vito Dhaenens is the creative force behind Vito. He is a musician who shares his own distinctive Belgian sound - Belgicana - with the world, from his hometown of Ghent. His music is an exciting mix of Americana, folk and Belgian melancholy, interwoven with personal stories told with an open heart and a sharp pen. Not afraid to expose his desires, doubts and dreams in his music, Vito offers listeners a journey between two worlds: the free-spirited America of his influences, and the intimate warmth of his Flemish roots.

After sharing the stage with legends such as dEUS and The Van Jets, and enchanting a sold-out Vooruit with his impressive live show, Vito is ready for the next chapter. His previous releases Man With Feelings, Cheesy, and The Restless Kind revealed a versatile and compelling artist, but his most ambitious project is yet to come.

In 2025, he will release his album It Happens Everywhere All The Time, a work born from spontaneous and playful recording sessions that promises an eclectic and adventurous musical journey. Vito translates life's raw emotions and desires into his own poetic style, with influences from artists such as Bob Dylan, JJ Cale, Kurt Vile and even a touch of pop sensibility from Rihanna.

With his unique voice and captivating, almost timeless melodies, Vito seems destined for the top of the Belgian music scene. Expect nothing less than an honest, raw, and heart-wrenching musical experience that is as elusive as it is irresistible.
