As "Ingo," he was the congenial counterpart to Olli Dittrich's "Dittsche" behind the TV snack bar. For this, he received the German Television Award and the Grimme Prize in Gold. With his band "Texas Lightning," he represented Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest and collected Gold and Platinum with the number one hit "No No Never."
The musician and actor has long since laid down the cowboy hat and turned to the German language. About his songs, even the great Reinhard Mey says: "I wish there were still radio stations that played something like this." And Olli Schulz thinks: "Jon Flemming Olsen is a fantastic musician." No question about it: Olsen is not only an excellent singer and multi-instrumentalist, but he also writes enchantingly beautiful songs. This is also the case with his brand new, now fourth album: "Haus der Liebe": ballads without kitsch, humor with brain – and lyrics that resonate long after. Completely without pandering, drivel, and schmaltz.
On stage, you experience Olsen as a sensitive entertainer and impressive one-man band. With various guitars, mandolin, Irish bouzouki, foot percussion, and a bag full of good stories.
