The Christmas Singer is the winter alter ego of Hans de Graaf (1966), born in Spakenburg as the youngest of four brothers. He went to Calvijnschool in Spakenburg and later completed VWO in Amersfoort, before graduating in Analytical Chemistry at Utrecht University. After his studies, he worked in the pharmaceutical industry and from 1995 built his own companies within ICT, software development and online learning. His analytical and creative nature earned him several patents and brought him regularly to international stages as a speaker.
In 2022 Hans suffered a heart attack with subsequent cardiac arrest, which was followed by an intensive rehabilitation period. It was precisely during this time that he rediscovered the power of music. Singing became a new and important part of his life, first in a shanty choir and later as a solo singer. His warm baritone voice and natural stage presence fit seamlessly with familiar, nostalgic music.
The alter ego of The Christmas Singer grew out of Hans' love of atmosphere, stories and traditions surrounding Christmas. The Dickens-like appearance and mobile setting fit his way of performing: close to people, with attention to detail and a warm personal tone.

We thoroughly enjoyed the performance of the Christmas singer at our event. He was punctual and kept all the appointments we made. Also incredibly nice that we got to point out our own songs on the menu! The music perfectly matched the cozy Christmas atmosphere of our event.
