Rutger is a promising new talent from Malta and he has recently covered the highly rated 2017 San Remo winner and Italian Eurovision entry by Francesco Gabbani, Occidentali’s Karma. Rutger gives a fine interpretation of the song and his vocals sound clear and confident.

Rutger is part of the Ironic PR & Artist Management in Malta. He has already represented Malta in competitions in Poland, Italy and Estonia achieving a top 3 finish in all of them. In 2013 he auditioned for Britain’s Got Talent and made it through to the third round where he performed the Celine Dion classic, I Surrender. In the same year he took part in the SingerStage International Festival and won the first prize in his category. He performed I Surrender again and also the classical Adagio.

Rutger has also participated twice in the Konkors Kanzunetta Indipendenza Junior festival in Malta. First in 2014 he sang a duet with Kylie Meilak, Rakkont, which finished in fifth place and in 2015 he sang Inħobbkom It-Tnejn and placed third.
