Theuns Jordaan is a singer-songwriter from South-Africa born on 10 January 1971. He recorded his debut album, Vreemde Stad in Stellenbosch and it was first released at the Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees in 2000, and later on by EMI. 'Vreemde Stad' has sold in excess of 150,000 copies to date. Subsequent releases 'Tjailatyd' and 'Seisoen', proved equally popular and established him as a star in Afrikaans music. Theuns Jordaan's singing is characterized by his deeply emotive bass voice. His music has been said to be "faintly bluesly, radio-friendly", with his lyrics "infused with a mournful love of South Africa." His true interpretation of old Afrikaans songs and some of his original tracks, has made him a big hit with fans. Read more on Last.fm.
