Chicco is an artist from The Hague who, over the past two years, has grown into a recognizable and widely supported name within the Dutch pop and folk music scene. He achieved nationwide breakthrough success through the television show De Hollandse Nieuwe, where his emotional yet humorous performance of Adio Amore immediately captured the attention of both the audience and the judges. His breakout single Veeg Ze Van Het Matje quickly evolved into a folk anthem with cult status, widely embraced in bars, living rooms, and across social media.
Chicco is currently featured in the reality series Oh Oh Den Haag, offering viewers an inside look into his life, personality, and roots in The Hague. The series highlights the contrast between his rapid rise within the entertainment industry and his down-to-earth, approachable character, a combination that sets him apart within the Dutch music landscape.
In 2025, Chicco independently sold out the main hall of PAARD in The Hague. He also performed as a support act for Goldband at a sold-out Ziggo Dome. With his energetic live performances and strong audience interaction, he continues to build a rapidly growing and loyal fanbase. Despite his young age, he can already look back on an impressive start to his musical career. Chicco van de Luijtgaarden is undoubtedly an artist to watch closely in the coming years.
