Jeangu’s debut album High On You (2017) consists of soulful personal songs: a collection of stories about struggle, gratitude, hope and trust; experiences from the life of a young adult. The record is nominated for an Edison Pop in the Best Album category and brings Jeangu and his band to Lowlands and North Sea Jazz. On his second album Horizon (2019), Jeangu presents himself with his head held high. The searching boy has become a self-assured artist, who explores the world driven by curiosity, ambition and zest for life.

Jeangu is currently working on his third studio album, which is scheduled for release in the second half of 2022. The first two singles, A Little Greener with Pete Philly, which was voted top song on NPO Radio 2, and Worship are now appeared.
