Jan Sloane is an English singer-songwriter, guitarist and music video producer, based in Paris.  From Stonehenge to Chernobyl and football to 3D movies, his songs cover a range of areas which interest him.  His music is typified by catchy tunes and humorous lyrics, often in an ironic way.

Jan Sloane's style has been described as cross-over music, with both rock and comedy influences.  He has been inspired by a variety of artists including Kiss, Bloodhound Gang, Nirvana and Queen.

Although a solo artist, Jan Sloane often performs with local acts, such as Culture Bay and Dark Angel Knight.  He writes the lyrics in English and sings parts in French on the Paris open mic circuit.  He doesn't play covers publicly, preferring to sing originals and parodies.

Jan Sloane has used YouTube to publish his music videos.  They are characterised by picture animation, transitions and cheesy special effects, edited in PowerDirector.  The clips add another dimension to his sounds without taking himself too seriously in the process.
