My name is Lotte Walda. I’m a singer-songwriter from the Netherlands. Music means everything to me. With my songs I wish to inspire and create a better world.

During Lotte's formative years as an artist, she explored music in both the biggest and smallest of settings: from various festival stages to the bustling streets of China.

Everywhere she steps foot, Lotte disarms audiences with her warm, soulful songs, which, despite their feat
