ENGLISH J.A.N. is a project of singer/songwriter Jan Hoekstra. He started making music at a young age. At the age of seven he started playing piano and a lot of instruments followed. And soon the urge came to write his own music. First in English, later in Dutch and finally in (Western)Frisian. A language that is closest to him. J.A.N. makes atmospheric songs. With sometimes personal lyrics, things to think about or lyrics with a little wink. At this point his discography is nearly empty, but that is something he is currently working on... There are more songs to come!!! (WEST)FRISIAN J.A.N. is it projekt fan sjonger-ferskeskriuwer Jan Hoekstra. Hy is al fan jongs ôf oan dwaande mei it meitsjen fan muzyk. Dat siet der yn, dat bliuwt der ek sitten en dêr komt er altyd by werom. Sa kaam al gau de oandriuw om ek eigen wurk te meitsjen. Earst yn it Ingelsk, letter yn it Hollânsk, mar úteinlik yn it Frysk. De taal dy ’t it tichste by him leit. J.A.N. makket sfearfolle ferskes mei soms persoanlike teksen, hjir en dêr stof om oernei te tinken en ek noch wol ris in lytse knypeach. Op dit momint binne noch net al syn ferskes te fynen, mar dêr komt feroaring yn. Hy is drok dwaande mei opnames!
