I love dancing and I’m fascinated by the rise of voguing in the Brussels club scene… it allows you to be anything you want.”
With Israeli, Polish, and Yemenite roots, singer-songwriter Mic Owl brings a soulful multicultural voice to the Brussels queer scene. His journey began with a cultural shock: arriving in Belgium at age 7, struggling with a new language and identity. At 12, it was Mika’s debut album that cracked open two worlds at once—his love for music and his queer awakening.
“Sixteen years later, I got the opportunity to audition for The Voice Belgique. I joined Typh Barrow’s team, made it past the blind auditions and into the Knockouts. A year later, I released my first EP, Lustfully Ever After. It’s been intense!”
Now based in Madrid with his boyfriend, Mic is embracing a fresh chapter—personally and musically. He’s exploring tropical house, club beats, and a new sonic universe: “In these times of recession, rising hate and tension, I feel the surge of escapism—and I want to explore that lane.” Alongside this musical rebirth comes a visual one: “I’m taking the time to reinvent my aesthetic. It’s scary and exciting.”
But beyond the beats and visuals, Mic stands for a quieter, often underrepresented side of queerness. “I want to represent a part of the community that’s more introverted, less exuberant, that dreams of building a family and chilling on a Friday night.” For him, queerness is about authenticity, not stereotypes.
He’s inspired by queer icons like Freddie Mercury, Elton John, Billie Eilish, and Lil Nas X—artists who break norms and open space for others. “I hope in the future, no one will need to come out. Loving who you love should just be normal.”
From voguing nights in Brussels to sun-drenched tracks in Madrid, Mic Owl is building bridges—between cultures, sounds, and hearts.
