Yves Berendse (born 29 October 1993) is a Dutch singer from Zandvoort, North Holland.

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

Career

[edit]

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]
