About Me
I guess I’m the last person on earth starting her own Myspace profile...always thought of it as an exhibisionists playground...not my thing.
It was the same story with a computer, a cell-phone, an I-pod...always the last in line, but I've turned into a proper digi-freak! Fell in love with Apple comps through music/ studiowork, and life would never be the same again.
Anyway, it’s pretty damn hard to stay in touch with the people you meet around the globe, as well as checking out what they’re all up to.....
So, okay, okay, okay....you got me; here’s my profile.
I’ll leave it up to other people to flatter me, or judge me, I’ll just stick to the facts!
Well, my name is Nienke de Jong. Annoyingly energetic and cheerful, love music, books, movies. Adore the great outdoors...not a city-girl. I’m a vegetarian, adore Italian food, and getting a wee bit drunk every now and then suits me just fine!
I was born into a loving family, which makes me what I am today: a loving, caring person. I’ve got a big heart, probably a tiny bit too big every now and then.
If I ever get hit by a bus and my life flashes before my eyes; what I see won’t be boring.
I’ve studied two times, lived practically everywhere, had glorious years, and tragic moments, life has been a rollercoaster-ride.
Through the years it has become pretty apparent what I want to do with my life; devote myself to music.
I’ve been singing in a band called AUTUMN (www.autumn-band.com)for 8 years now. This band has been signed to Sony Music, Universal/TEC and recently to Metal Blade. We’ve released two albums, and the 3rd is about to be released this coming may...worldwide.
I feel the best is yet to come for this band, we finally got the perfect bunch together, chemistry is great!
Besides AUTUMN I’ve started a solo band with Arno Krabman to satisfy all my musical needs. It’s called DEJAFUSE (www.dejafuse.com).We’ve written enough material two fill at least two albums! And I’m pretty damn fortunate, the musicians in this band are awesome!
And as if this wasn’t enough; I run a recording studio together with Arno Krabman;
GRAVELAND STUDIO (www.gravelandstudio.com). We record bands aswell as solo-artists. Besides that we write music for movies, commercials and various artists.
Rock ’n roll is the thing we love most, but we are very openminded when it comes to other musical styles. At this very moment we’re expanding (building), GRAVELAND STUDIO is makin’ it big! Thanks to hard work, very hard work!
All and all I feel I’m a pretty fortunate person! I live in the countryside, got a great house, a superb occupation, dear friends, the worlds greatest lover, a sweet dog and I turned out be a pretty sane person...let’s hope it stays this way!
Nice meetin’ ya’ll!!!
