Born and raised in Groningen, Manuel's musical career took off when he came into contact with Willy Oosterhuis. Completely blown away by Manuel's performance, Willy Oosterhuis handed out a wildcard invitation for the Mega Piraten Festijn 2023, with which Manuel took his place in front of a large audience for the first time.

After that moment Manuel's musical career took off. Through his enthusiasm he gets the whole audience going with his music every week. Whether it's a dinner show, a wedding, carnival in Eindhoven or the local football canteen, it's always a big party.

During the Four Days Marches 2025, Manuel can be seen at Het Mega Café in the Molenstraat, where he will undoubtedly have the audience singing along and partying again.
