Jan & Kjeld

Jan & Kjeld were a musical duo from Denmark, consisting of brothers Jan and Kjeld Wennick, both singers and banjo players. The duo, active in the late 1950s and early 1960s, was especially successful in Germany with a number of schlager-style songs. The duo is perhaps best known for their 1960 song "Banjo Boy", which was their only tune that had achieved national hit parade prosperity in the United States by means of the Cash Box top 100 singles thru which this tune had peaked at position #62 and the Billboard Hot 100 thru which this song had peaked at position #58.
