Froukje

Froukje Veenstra was born in Nieuwkoop into a family of teachers, for whom music always played a central role.

[7][8][9][10][11] At the end of the year, she had three songs voted into the annual Dutch Top 2000 greatest songs of all time program, the highest being "Ik wil dansen" at No.

Throughout 2021, that song was used as a slogan during protests for reopening nightlife that had been shuttered by the pandemic.

[13] Veenstra composes her own music with the help of a laptop, a guitar or a keyboard.

Lyrically she is influenced by Maarten van Roozendaal and Theo Nijland.
