[@mariebetz7738]

the fact that he is now on tour in Europe and is killing his shows and make people fall in love with his music is incredible. For his age he achieved already so much. I was in cologne at his concert and it was incredible. The show was so entertaining and his interaction with the fans was so much fun. His range was incredible, he was doing a backflip and just after that he started to do some incredible (almost whistle) notes. And it was no Playback or Autotune used... It was pure magic to see him perform and hear his music live. I wish him all the best and hope to see him soon back in Germany!

[@SincerelyGwendolyn]

Went to his show in Amsterdam and it was amazing! He talked with us during his show😊
