Jan Smitreleasedhis new singleSamentoday. The song is the follow-up toTranquilo, which will reach ten million streams next week and was named the summer hit of 2025. As with his previous hit, Jan once again collaborated with Alain Clark, with whom he wrote the song.
Togetheris about seeking connection and bridging differences. The message is positive and timely: especially at a time when differences sometimes seem great, we can find common ground in what connects us. "Together we can do it, even though we are all different," says Jan Smit. "I wanted to write a song that brings people closer together. With friends and family, but also with people who may not be like you."
The single is accompanied by the release of the music video forSamen, featuring guest appearances by Alain Clark and singer Bente. The video brings the song's message to life with warm, relatable scenes full of small encounters, unexpected connections, and the joy of being together.
The last few months of 2025 promise to be very special for Jan. On November 15, he will perform at the Sportpaleis in Antwerp, followed by performances at Het Muziekfeest van het Jaar (The Music Festival of the Year) at the Ziggo Dome and the Toppers Christmas Party at Ahoy in December. On August 7 and 8, Jan will also celebrate his 30th anniversary with two big anniversary shows at the Marinapark in Volendam. The performance on August 8 is already sold out.
