Raw. Emotional. Profoundly human.
Werner Bekker is a South African singer-songwriter whose music feels like a deep breath for the soul. His deeply personal, storytelling-driven blend of folk and pop creates space for people to feel seen, heard — and ultimately, uplifted.
With over a decade of artistic presence, his unique voice has taken him from sharing stages with global names (Calum Scott, Hollow Coves, Amistat, Darren Kiely, A-HA, Jeremy Loops and Matthew Mole) to co-writing and co-producing the upcoming track Just Rhythm with UK-based artist Waiting for Smith, set for release in 2025.
Known for his honest style and introspective lyrics, Bekker has established himself as a powerful voice both across South Africa (featured on BalconyTV and Sofar Sounds, performed at iconic A-Track, Oppikoppi, Splashy Fen and many more) and overseas.
Lightwoven, an upcoming debut full-length album co-produced by Dean Salant, is at the heart of his current EU tour , with 13 shows across Germany and Austria. Shaped by the most intimate and transformative journey through personal darkness into growth and light, it’s a musical roadmap for those navigating love, loss, healing, and hope.
