Meindert Talma
Meindert Talma (born Surhuisterveen, The Netherlands, 02 November 1968) is a Dutch writer, keyboardist and singer/songwriter, who has recorded songs with lyrics in three different languages: Dutch, English and (his mothertongue) Frisian. He lives and works in the Dutch town of Groningen.
In total, Talma released thirteen studio albums: six with his backing band The Negroes (see Meindert Talma & The Negroes), six under his own name, one album of football/soccer songs with a special backing band named De Rode Kaarten (see Meindert Talma & De Rode Kaarten) and one album with The Melisma Saxophone Quarter (see Meindert Talma & The Melisma Saxophone Quartet).
His albums simply released as Meindert Talma are:
Kriebelvisje (2003, songs in Dutch/Frisian)
Tamango (2009, songs in English)
De Zee Roept (2011, songs in Dutch)
Kelderkoorts (2013, songs in Dutch)
Jannes van der Wal (2016, songs in Dutch/English)
Je Denkt Dat Het Komt (2017, songs in Dutch/Frisian)
Most of these albums are accompanied by a work of art. Kriebelvisje is also the title of a book of short stories written by Talma. Tamango is also a film: the album of Talma songs is essentially the soundtrack (film and album were released as a CD/DVD package). De Zee Roept is a CD/photobook package by Meindert Talma (music) and Tryntsje Nauta (photography). Kelderkoorts and Je Denkt Dat Het Komt are also autobiographical novels, parts 1 and 2 of Talma's autobiographical memoirs ('Nederlandse Onbekendste Popster', or 'The Netherlands' Least Known Pop Star') with the two albums as musical companions.
