Music doesn’t get purer and more authentic than in the hands of ISE, the 19-year-old singer-songwriter from Belgium with a talent to pour personal stories into heartfelt indie rock songs. For the past years she has gained a strong and impressive live reputation across Europe, with her powerful presence and performance, even when it was just her on guitar or piano. 

With her unique raw voice and stripped-down 90s guitar sound, ISE stunned audiences at many Belgian festivals including Rock Werchter (youngest female artist ever!) and Pukkelpop, and at several international festivals such as Sziget (HU), Best Kept Secret (NL), Traumzeit (D), Belgian Beer Weekend + Expo 2025 Osaka (Japan).
This live success led to sold out club shows in Belgium (AB Club twice on the same day!) and The Netherlands, and invites to play supports for established international artists: Hozier (Forest National, Brussels), Fantastic Negrito (London, Paris) and Gavin DeGraw (AFAS Amsterdam).

2025 will mark the beginning of a new phase in her already successful but yet still budding career, shifting all focus to working on her debut Album ‘Suitcase Child’ that will be released on January 9th 2026.
Since her parents' divorce when she was just three, ISE spent her childhood shuttling between two homes, packing her suitcase each week. Now using her music to express the emotions that came with it.
“When your parents are divorced, you don’t get a say in it, and you don’t get to choose who enters your life and who will be new ‘family’. Sometimes it’s nice, often it’s not. I put my personal feelings into these songs, but maybe other people can relate too, and I hope they can find strength and value in it”, says the young songwriter.
This album shows ISE evolving as a young adult and as an artist, with full band arrangements literally amplifying her then fragile, then angry emotions. She can’t wait to hit the stage with a full band and new sound! Meanwhile releasing singles towards the big release day; ‘Remember?’ was the first album single to be released, with added instrumentation and lush orchestration that build up to a cutting emotional finale. Followed by the more powerful songs ‘When you are around’ and ‘Just a Lie’.
