Jens Niemann is the keyboard player of the German Bluesrock Band "Jail Job Eve".
Jens studied piano at the Institut für Musik in Osnabrück (Germany). During his studies, he met his bandmates that would later become "Jail Job Eve". In 2015, two years after starting out together, they had their first release with "Bird Of Passage" (available on Spotify). In 2016, after trying a series of different keyboards for the live show band, Jens finally decided that Bluesrock is to be played with a Hammond (and nothing else) and got his first Hammond. In 2018 they put out their first whole album "The Mission" which was widely acknowledged by the international music press.
Their latest release is "Wildfire" (October 2021), an album that was recorded live in its entirety, without overdubbing, including lead vocals and solos.
Apart from being the organ player of "Jail Job Eve", Jens is a freelance pianist/keyboard player and music educator.
"Every group of instruments goes through various trends and phases. But among organ-players, there is only one constant trend, just one thing, that's truely hip: The Hammond organ."
