Red Sebastian – Who Are You?
Seppe Herremans, known by his stage name Red Sebastian, is already a phenomenon in the Belgian music industry at 25. His musical persona has been developing in front of audiences thanks to a career that began at an early age and exceptional talent.
In a recent interview for escbubble, the singer talks about his deep connection to Eurovision, saying, “I’ve always dreamed of being on that stage since I was a little boy.” His passion for Eurovision started at a young age with watching Belgian national selections and Junior Eurovision.
Beyond his love for Eurovision, he also describes his rich musical background, from piano studies at the music academy in his hometown to studies at the conservatory, where he met teachers who deeply influenced his vocal ability and songwriting. Gustaph, who represented Belgium at Eurovision 2023, was one of Red Sebastian’s teachers and greatly influenced him.
The song “Strobe Lights“, with which he is competing in “Eurosong 2025”, describes an unforgettable night of experiences with friends. Sebastian describes the song as “flashy, euphoric, and impressive,” and says it’s meant to enjoy life and make the most of it.
