Janneke Elisabeth (30) is a powerhouse vocalist with a warm voice that really touches people. Based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Janneke started dancing and singing at a young age:
‘I was five years old when I visited a musical for the first time, I immediately fell in love with the beautiful dramatic music and couldn’t stop singing at home’
At a young age she started dancing classes and was selected for a dance- and theatre educational program, which she followed alongside her normal studies. She started taking professional singing lessons at the age of 12. In 2017 she received her Bachelor at Lucia Marthas Institute for Performing Arts in Amsterdam. Along with a few other students she was selected for the Student Honours program Musical Theatre, which allowed her to do exchange programs in Sweden and Germany. She also started a vocal group with Jackie Lou and Paul Morris Wienk in 2016 called ‘The Blaxx’ and they performed many shows singing jazz, soul, disco and pop music in harmony.
After graduating she started working for Norwegian Creative Studios in Tampa, Florida. She then joined her first cruise ship: the Norwegian Star. Singing as a lead vocalist in the production shows was a dream come true, so she continued working for Norwegian Creative Studios and later joined the luxurious Regent Seven Seas Explorer and the Regent Seven Seas Voyager.
Janneke is now signed with Eleonore Entertainment, who provided her the contract as a lead singer in the cast of the MS Baltic Princess in 2023 and currently the 2nd year contract with Belinda King Creative Productions, where Janneke works as a lead singer onboard the MS Color Magic.
