Gente One & Jah Native Singing Circle

About this event

Gente One & Jah Native — Singing Circle
Where listening becomes sound

On Sunday 6 December, you’re welcome at Smile Sport in Haarlem for an afternoon of singing, listening and connecting.

I’m Jeffrey Vernimmen, the person behind Gente One. Together with Jah Native, I’ll welcome you into a circle where our voices can meet, supported by (Jeffrey Vernimmen, GenteOne) acoustic guitar, spirit flute (Danielle Leeuwin) percussion (Kenneth Leeuwin) and on the Bass (TBA).

We’ll share simple songs and mantras, with melodies and words you can discover through repetition. Join in at your own pace: sing freely, hum softly or simply listen.

We’ll begin gently, allowing time to arrive and settle. Throughout the afternoon, there will be room for softness, rhythm, joy and silence. Between songs, we’ll take a moment to listen and let the sound settle.

We’ll also explore our voices through gentle, playful exercises, discovering the power of listening and the voice. Through sound, humming and shared listening, we’ll make space to connect with ourselves and each other. There’s no right way to sound—just room to explore.

You don’t need any singing experience, and there’s nothing to prepare. You’re welcome just as you are.

We’ll sing mantras from Buddhist and Indian traditions, heart songs and original songs by Gente One. Whether you know them already or are hearing them for the first time, you’re welcome to join in at your own pace.
