Jan Marini Alano started her showbiz career in Ang TV, ABS-CBN’s teen-oriented gag/variety show in the early 1990s. As one of the resident singers of the show, Jan honed her talents resulting in television guesting as a performer in various variety shows in the country. She released her eponymous debut album in 1995 with the single “Love Song” highlighting her soulful voice. She was included in the cast of the original soap Mula sa Puso as the lead’s best friend. Her appearance in the series paved the way for Jan to play different roles in numerous drama anthology specials of the two major networks. She has also appeared in several mainstream and indie films throughout her career. Jan has also performed live at the Library and other music bars in the Metro. In late 2010, Jan released her sophomore entitled “Once” boasting 11-tracks of both revivals and originals, two of which were penned by Jan herself including the carrier single “White Walls.” She has recently concluded guesting stints in ABS CBN’s Mara Clara and GMA’s Magic Palayok, and will soon be seen on the Kapuso Network’s upcoming soap opera, Kung Aagawin ang Langit.

Jan is a running enthusiast and an avid supporter of World Vision and Shepherd of the Hills Foundation. She is also currently the endorser of Appleseed Spa.
