Regulars at Toots know her well: they often spot her around aperitif time, performing in duo with Joachim Caffonnette, or during the jam sessions where she never fails to make an impression. Adinda Hertmans, winner of the Toots Thielemans Award 2025, is undoubtedly the voice everyone in the Belgian jazz scene is talking about today.
At just 24 years old, the daughter of Peter Hertmans — a leading figure of jazz guitar in Belgium — already impresses with her remarkable vocal control, as well as with her deep understanding of harmony and repertoire, displaying a striking level of maturity.
Tonight, she takes the prime-time stage leading her own quartet, presenting her original repertoire and surrounded by some of the most talented musicians of the young Brussels jazz generation. An artist to keep a very close eye on.
