Release of debut album with solo pop-rock project
JEN is the pop-rock project of 24-year-old Jente Neels. A fresh sound, bold guitars and sharp hooks that stick with you mean she is rapidly establishing a name for herself on the Belgian pop scene.
Things have moved fast since her debut single in October 2024: JEN has played her own shows at home & abroad and appeared as support-act for the likes of Pommelien Thijs, Compact Disk Dummies, Sylvie Kreusch and even British pop star Lola Young.
The band makes its mark live too, with energetic shows and solid festival summers featuring visits to Suikerrock, Beach Festival, Crammerock, Moen Feest and Zeverrock, amongst others. That momentum is also reflected on the radio, where JEN’s singles have been heard on stations including StuBru, Radio Willy and Radio 1.
JEN is no stranger to the music scene: Jente Neels played previously as a musician for artists like Sylvie Kreusch and guitarist with Pommelien Thijs. For JEN, she resolutely chooses to focus on her own music and story.
Her long-awaited debut album is due out at the end of 2026. JEN will celebrate that release on 15 November 2026 with a show here at AB. A next step for a project that is rapidly developing into one of the most exciting new pop acts of the moment.
