# Jan Smit

> Jan Smit sings in Dutch - specifically in palingsound, a regional sound that translates roughly to "eel music" and sits somewhere between folk and easy-listening schlager. He's been doing it since childhood, and by now he's also a TV host and an actor who joins supergroups on the side.

## Bio

Born 31 December 1985, Smit built a solo career singing Dutch-language palingsound before widening the tent. In 2015 he joined Klubbb3, a schlager trio, and in 2017 signed on with the Toppers, another group act. Television pulled him in as a presenter - he's hosted Beste Zangers and Sterren Muziekfeest op het Plein, both music programs. Since 1999 he's been an ambassador for SOS Children's Villages, a role he's held longer than some of his bandmates have been famous.
