Artists
Tourist LeMC
SATURDAY 1 AUG - Gold Stage
COUNTRY: Aantwaarepe
GENRE: Hip hop / kleinkunst / reggae / folk
🔥 Antwerp’s “stadstroubadour”: Tourist LeMC (Johannes Faes) raps and sings in a signature Antwerps dialect, with rhythms pulled from hip hop, reggae and folk.
🔥 Breakthrough era: En Route (2015) delivered fan-favourite tracks like “Koning Liefde” and “Horizon” and turned him into a major live draw in Belgium.
🔥 Awards moment: nominated for multiple MIAs and took home wins including “Best Singer (Dutch)” and “Breakthrough”.
🔥 Big collabs, big voices: from Typhoon to Bart Peeters and Raymond van het Groenewoud — Tourist moves easily between hip hop stages and songwriters’ rooms.
Tourist LeMC is the kind of artist you can’t file under one label. He’s a rapper, a storyteller, and a singer who writes like he’s talking straight to you — in Antwerps, but understood far beyond Antwerp.
He broke through with music that feels cinematic and close-up at the same time: streetwise details, big emotions, and choruses that people carry home. Tracks like “Koning Liefde” and “Horizon” helped cement that sound as a modern Flemish classic.
Across albums and tours, he kept widening the palette — hip hop backbone, reggae warmth, folk-like songwriting — plus collaborations that link him with some of the strongest names in Belgian and Dutch-language music.
Live, expect connection first: a full crowd singing back, a set that swings between intimate and explosive, and that Tourist magic where a festival field suddenly feels like one big shared story.
