J. Bernardt, also known as Jinte Deprez, is a one man band. He is a singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, arranger, producer, sound engineer and programmer. However, Deprez is best known as one half of the singer-songwriter duo Balthazar, one of Belgium's most loved and respected alt rock bands. While 2017's debut album Running Days is a mix of sounds shaped by electronics, the new album Contigo from 2024 is based on a traditional band - namely a group of Deprez's talented friends whom the artist has guided through intense rehearsals and performances, together looking for that spark.
