He is called the singing fisherman: Jeroen Zijlstra. In his lyrics and music there is a beautiful balance between the rawness and the beauty of (fisherman’s) life. Topics such as love, the peace and emptiness of the former island of Wieringen, the stimulating hectic of New York, the melancholy of the sea and the tragicomic reality of life are amply discussed. Singing and searching, praying and cursing, loosely testifying of things to come, friends who left and songs created in silence. Zijlstra brightens everyone’s mood with insightful reflections, correct chords and trumpet calls.
