Rachel Traets

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.

In October 2011 she won the Dutch music competition Junior Songfestival 2011 with the song "Ik Ben Een Teenager" ("I Am A Teenager"). She was selected to represent her country in the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2011 held on 3 December 2011 in Yerevan, Armenia. A few weeks later the title "Ik Ben Een Teenager" was shrunk to "Teenager", which would be the official title for the Dutch entry. She came in second in the actual contest, five points behind the winner: Candy from Georgia. She received 12 points from Latvia and Belgium.
