Dressed Like Boys is the solo music project of Jelle Denturck, a singer-songwriter based in Ghent, Belgium. As a gay man, Jelle’s work often reflects on themes of sexuality, identity, and the ongoing struggles of the queer community throughout history. With a sound that blends the warmth of '70s piano ballads, the carefree charm of '60s sunshine pop, indie folk, and experimental recording techniques, Dressed Like Boys creates a unique sonic world that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. His songs invite listeners into a deeply personal journey, while resonating with the broader human experience of love, resilience, and self-discovery.
