Rachel Traets (born 16 August 1998) is a singer from the Netherlands. Traets lives in Wouw, a small village in the south-west of the Netherlands.[1]
In October 2011 she won Junior Songfestival 2011 with the song "Ik ben een Teenager" (English: "I'm a Teenager").[2] She was selected to represent her country in the 2011 Junior Eurovision Song Contest held on 3 December 2011 in Yerevan, Armenia.[3][4] A few weeks later the title "Ik ben een Teenager" was shrunk to "Teenager", which would be the official title for the Dutch entry.[5] She came in second in the actual contest with only a few points difference with the winner of the 2011 contest: Candy from Georgia.
Rachel is preceded by Anna and Senna who represented the Netherlands in the 2010 Junior Eurovision Song Contest.
