Celebrating the Legacy of Luc De Vos
Yesterday in Ghent, a crowd of 7,000 people gathered at the bustling Vrijdagmarkt to sing along to the iconic Flemish song Mia by Gorki. The event was a heartfelt tribute to Luc De Vos, the frontman of Gorki, who passed away 10 years ago. In Flanders, Luc De Vos is remembered not only for his music but as a cultural icon and artist. Known as a poet, a lively entertainer (or, as he liked to call himself, a "party animal"), he was admired for his creativity, his philosophy, and his warm, generous spirit.
The singalong moment, accompanied by Gorki’s musicians and vocalist Filip Kowlier, created an unforgettable atmosphere, bringing goosebumps to everyone present. Held at 5:30 PM, the event was broadcast on all major national platforms, including TV, radio, and online channels.
"Luc was an icon and always will be," echoed the sentiment among the crowd. For many in Flanders, this collective tribute was not only about remembering a musician but celebrating a voice and a spirit that defined a generation.
