Few musicians have managed to capture the hearts of fans the way Jan Blohm has. His 2020 concept album, Jenny, tells the story of two teenagers who lives in the small conservative railway town, De Aar, in the 1980s and since its release listeners have enjoyed seeing the story unfold.
With his latest single, NONNIE, he shares the next piece of this captivating puzzle. “Jenny’s parents used to call her NONNIE and this single is the next chapter in her story. It is another song that the young man across the street writes because he misses her,” the singer explains about the song that he produced with John Masser and Vonk Musiek.
According to him, the message behind the fourth release from his latest album, is to hold on to the feeling of first love. “I feel that you can always revisit those feelings and that it is the fear of getting hurt that prevents us from looking at love with child-like innocence.”
NONNIE follows in the footsteps of chart-topping hits like Jenny, Ou Karoo and Levi Jeans, which can still be heard on the radio.
Jan Blohm has been continuously revolutionizing the Afrikaans rock scene since making his debut in 2004 with the album, Melkstraat Confessions.
With NONNIE he continues strengthening his place in the hearts of local music lovers.
