Jan Eggum (born 8 December 1951) is a Norwegian singer-songwriter.

He has been characterized as a "face for the melancholy", and the themes in his songs are often broken hearts, loneliness, and sorrow.

1977

His breakthrough came after his third release, the album "Heksedans" from 1977.

This album gave him the Norwegian award Spellemannsprisen, and on this album has such classics as "Mor, jeg vil tilbake".

Since this, Eggum has been one of Norway's most well known artists, both as a solo artist and with others.

An example of the latter is his membership in Gitarkameratene with fellow guitarists Lillebjørn Nilsen, Øystein Sunde and Halvdan Sivertsen.

Eggum has been a minor political candidate for the Norwegian Green Party.
