FENNE is her biggest current project. Here, she shows her own compositions with her band and backing vocals, exploring sounds and harmonies in a live setting and taking her songs to a higher level. A lot of songs have to do with her research about finding your inner child again; a research that begun with the song: "Beyond The Wall". This song also made the title of her first EP, which came out on the 24th of March, 2023. On this EP played Alex van der Spek, Dirk Evelo, Marc Sentenie, Louise Linkenbach, Cisca Ghijsels and Hanna Boudewijnse. It was produced by Boudewijn Pleij.
Her newest single, "last night i dreamt about you" released on the 27th of October 2023. This was produced by Thijs van Zutphen.
Expect dreamy harmonies, floating underneath a clear melody, with grooves set deep and lyrics that speak to hidden darknesses within yourself. Like diary entries, she tells personal stories about herself and others. Her biggest goal is to find a mutual ground and connect with the audience.
From August 2023, Scholte has joined Kika Sprangers in her theater project: "Dochters". A project with 9 singers (Anna Serierse, Veronika Akmetchina, Sylvia Boone, Elea Bekkers, Marit van der Lei, Nina Rompa, Līva Dumpe, Viktoria Nikolova) and a saxophone, performing contemporary pieces from different genres and different languages. They premiered this show at the Grachtenfestival in Amsterdam in August and played four more shows in September 2023.
Scholte is a part of the new album/project of Daniel Clason, functioning as an instrument and colouring together with the brass section. They recorded the songs in January 2023 with the large ensemble. On his album, which is yet to be released, she will appear on two of the songs.
