Biyografi

The seeds to Jeangu Macrooy’s journey are planted when he receives a guitar at age thirteen. However, his musical ambition turns out to be bigger than the music scene in his native Suriname, leading to his move to The Netherlands in 2014. There he meets producer/composer Perquisite, who becomes his musical collaborator. In 2016 Jeangu's debut-EP Brave Enough is being released and his career finds itself on the fast track: he becomes a recurring guest on Dutch TV and is nominated for the Edison Award 'Best New Artist'. Jeangu’s debut album High On You (2017) brings him to major live slots at Lowlands Festival, Eurosonic and North Sea Jazz and also his second album Horizon (2019) receives lots of critical acclaim. Early 2020 it is announced that Jeangu Macrooy has been selected to represent The Netherlands at the Eurovision Song Contest 2020. Eurovision is cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic but Jeangu gets the chance to participate in Eurovision 2021 with his new song 'Birth Of A New Age'. Its message of resilience and self-worth resonates all over Europe. Jeangu's third studio album Summer Moon (2022) is his most candid yet. In ten outspoken songs, Jeangu sings about longing to start a new life (Paris), the idea that the grass is always greener on the other side (A Little Greener) and the insecurities of an open relationship (Come Back). Jeangu has in part returned to the soulful sound of his debut album, but Summer Moon also has notable electronic influences.
