Back in 2005, she tried to represent The Netherlands in the Eurovision Song Contest. After numerous adventures in talent show, Rachel Kramer is now back in business. After a few years of no new material, her latest single is called Dreaming.
Rachel Kramer & Waylon
Her 2005 Nationaal Songfestival adventure wasn’t a solo one. She participated with Leven Als Een Beest, together with Willem Bijkerk. Willem then performed under his stage name: Waylon. And yes, that is the same Waylon we’ll be seeing in Lisbon.
Leven Als Een Beest wasn’t much of a success. It didn’t qualify for the final, which was won by Glennis Grace. After NSF 2005, Rachel also appeared on X-Factor 2008 and The Voice of Holland 2016. Her X-Factor adventure was rather successful, as she finished second.
A dreamy return
In a statement, Rachel says the stage has been a dream world for her. A world which she could escape to in tough times. Due to the struggles she’s had in the music industry, she lost a bit of that magic. Her new single is meant to be a return to that magic place music once was.
“Through this new step, my new music, I can feel the magic again”, says Rachel. What do you think? Is Rachel Kramer’s return to music a successful one? Will this be her great breakthrough? Make sure to check the video and let us know!
