Jan Kjaer Andersen is a Danish singer/songwriter and guitarist. He has written more than 150 songs, mostly in English and Danish, but also a few in French, Swahili and German.

He is a musical storyteller, reflecting on freedom, the planet, friendship, time, traveling – and of course love. Old standards and folk songs are also revived with new words – old poems with new melodies.

The style is singer/songwriter with pop, folk and jazz elements. Beautiful melodies, acoustic guitars and smooth voice.

Jan has traveled to about 90 countries and been working abroad for 8-9 years, mostly in Africa. This has influenced his songwriting quite a lot.

He is used to perform live up to 2½ hours and will mix his own original songs with his favourite songwriters like Stevie Wonder, Elton John, Beatles, Adele and Carole King.

Check out a the song ‘Just a show’ on YouTube here.

He also performs in the duo set-up Music as Medicine – or MAM – with bass player Thorkil Christensen. Here a Youtube song in Danish based on the old Scottish folk tune ‘Auld lang syne’ with Jan’s new lyrics about losing the loved ones.

Jan wants to team up with musicians in different parts of the world to create completely new sounds and emotions.

50 gigs in 2023. 71 planned for 2024. Plays also regularly in Budapest.
