Raoul was born into a musical family in The Hague, with parents who met through music and even played in the same band, making music an integral part of his life from the very beginning.
At age 19, he began studying guitar at the conservatory in Alkmaar (now Haarlem), where he devoted himself entirely to music.
After playing for a long time as a guitarist in bands and for various artists, Raoul decided to follow his own path and write songs. Following the release of his debut EP, which was celebrated with a performance at a sold-out Patronaat in Haarlem, Raoul took the stage at Paradiso in Amsterdam less than three months later during the finals of the Grote Prijs van Nederland.
He also reached the finals on national television on the SBS6 program “Hit The Road,” where he performed his original song “Kom Maar Op Met Die Regen,” which has since garnered over 160,000 streams on Spotify.
His latest single, “Ze Heeft Me Betoverd,” is an ode to his hometown of Haarlem; for this track, he collaborated with Haarlem Marketing and received national airplay on NPO Radio 5.

Raoul provided the musical accompaniment to our wedding ceremony for us. He played and sang 3 acoustic songs. His singing and guitar playing are beautiful and also in terms of communication before and during our day was super. He more than exceeded all our expectations and we also heard many compliments from our guests. Super thanks Raoul!

Raoul is very relaxed and really a top musician. He has a good feel for his audience and creates a click with young and old. He was a real asset to our party and I would recommend him to anyone!

Besides the fact that Raoul Michel makes great music, he is also extremely professional, flexible and accessible. We would definitely recommend Raoul!

I would recommend Raoul Michel to anyone, so do this! A top artist who professionally takes the audience into his repertoire of his own work (striking lyrics and interesting tunes) and covers. All this with an infectious enthusiasm. Super!

We had booked Raoul for our drink after our wedding ceremony. Because our wedding official was late, everything went very late. But Raoul kept waiting for the ceremony to finally start and end. Once he started he fulfilled all expectations! It was really added value and we got a lot of compliments from family and friends about him. We ourselves were also very happy with his performance! Highly recommended to book Raoul!

Raoul played for an hour at our wedding drink. The contact with Raoul before and after the performance went smoothly and his performance was expected. Raoul plays swinging own versions of famous pop songs and has an open look. Because he brings his own equipment, he is also very flexible in setting up.

We asked Raoul to take care of the (background) music during the drinks on the occasion of our wedding. We are very happy with what he has put down. Raoul was present in exactly the right dosage, so to speak ;-). Not only his guitar playing and vocals were of added value, but also his smooth and pleasant personality The contact with Raoul went fine. We got acquainted beforehand by e-mail and phone (because of the distance) and discussed which music would be appropriate. Very nice was that Raoul, as a surprise, played another song which was not on his repertoire list, but which he knew we liked As far as we are concerned, Raoul is highly recommended!

A great performance by Raoul on the wedding day of our daughter and son-in-law. Nice songs during the wedding ceremony. Bridal couple was pleasantly surprised! Beautifully sung by Raoul!

The communication with Raoul went very smoothly from the very first moment. We also came to an agreement quickly. The performance Raoul gave at our wedding was fantastic, it fitted in perfectly with our wishes. Raoul provided the reception with atmospheric background music for an hour and a half. The quality as well as his repertoire were very well appreciated by us, but also by our guests. At your next party I will certainly contact you again. Raoul, thank you!
