Pianist and composer Jean Lucas was born in Paris in December 1995. Based in Amsterdam
nowadays, he started playing the piano in his early childhood, having a piano in his motherly
home.
Jean Lucas played in numerous acts for several years, before he restarted composing his own
neo-classical pieces almost 4 years ago. He got motivated to tell people his story throughout his
piano, getting inspired by everyday things. After finishing his pieces of music, he got together with
Edison award winning and reputable producer Gijs van Klooster (known for his work with Joep
Beving) and even signed a record deal with Warner Music. That all in the final months of 2020.
His first singles were released in 2021 (which went quickly over a million streams) and his debut
album called ‘The Beauty Seems Close, But Is So Far Away’ was released on November 5th. Jean
Lucas celebrated his release by giving a sold-out release show. The melancholy piano sounds
have floated through the beautifully lit Paterskerk, and these same songs have already reached to
many listeners worldwide.
There will be more to hear from Jean Lucas this year: “I continued writing new music after
releasing my new album. A new chapter begins”.
