Jarje

At the start in 1974, Jarje (spreading manure) was an acoustic group that sang blues and fairground songs. The trio consisted of Hille Faber, Jos de Vries and Pieter Immenga in the mid-seventies.
The band from Drachten, however, grew in the eighties into an electrically-reinforced group with Opkaemerpop and Weinhokrock. Jarje was thus at the basis of the Frisian-language rock.
In 1986 the line-up was Hille Faber (vocals and mouth organ), Pieter Immenga (solo guitar), Harry Koch (bass guitar), Jos de Vries (vocals and guitar) and Thys Wadman (drums). Lieuwe Toren (keys) also played on the second album.
