Piche Kota is known to the public as one of the contestants of the latest season of Indonesian Idol, hailing from Atambua, East Nusa Tenggara. His full name is Petrus Yohannes Debrito Armando Djaga Kota. He began to draw attention after participating in the Indonesian Idol auditions and progressed to the spectacular round, before ultimately being eliminated mid-competition.

Piche's journey in Indonesian Idol has been quite consistent. Since the auditions, he received positive feedback from the judges due to his strong vocal character and emotional singing style. He successfully advanced to the spectacular round and performed several popular songs with arrangements that were considered safe, although not always standing out compared to other contestants. Piche's journey stopped at one of the rounds of the Spectacular Show after the voting results were insufficient to take him to the next stage.

Offstage from Indonesian Idol, Piche is known to have been actively singing since his teenage years and often performs at various local events in Atambua and its surroundings. Indonesian Idol became the platform that introduced his name to the national public, while also opening career opportunities in the music industry.
