Jasper Erkens is already something of a phenomenon in his country of birth, Belgium. He won his first awards when he was 15, scored his first hit a year later and was, at 16, the youngest artist ever to play the prestigious Rock Werchter festival. Since then, the story has only gone better… He graduated with distinction at BRIT School in London as a singer, producer and songwriter, following in the footsteps of Amy Winehouse, The Kooks, Katie Melua and many others.

Nowadays based in Amsterdam, Erkens is recording his new album with Jim Eliot (Kylie Minogue, Ellie Goulding, etc.). The release is expected in October, but in the meantime, here is his new single Hop On The Rhythm for you to enjoy!
