He lives and works in the Dutch town of Groningen.

In total, Talma released seventeen studio albums: six with his backing band The Negroes (see Meindert Talma & The Negroes), nine under his own name, one album of football/soccer songs with a special backing band named De Rode Kaarten (see Meindert Talma & De Rode Kaarten), one album with The Melisma Saxophone Quartet (see Meindert Talma & The Melisma Saxophone Quartet) and a 2023 project with Dutch singer De Jonge Boschfazant (see: De Jonge Boschfazant & Meindert Talma).

His albums released as Meindert Talma are:

Kriebelvisje (2003, songs in Dutch/Frisian)
Tamango (2009, songs in English)
De Zee Roept (2011, songs in Dutch)
Kelderkoorts (2013, songs in Dutch)

Je Denkt Dat Het Komt (2017, songs in Dutch/Frisian)
Balsturig (2019)
De Domela Passie (2019)
Minna (2021)

Most of these albums are accompanied by a work of art. Kriebelvisje is also the title of a book of short stories written by Talma. Tamango is also a film: the album of Talma songs is essentially the soundtrack (film and album were released as a CD/DVD package). De Zee Roept is a CD/photobook package by Meindert Talma (music) and Tryntsje Nauta (photography). Kelderkoorts and Je Denkt Dat Het Komt are also autobiographical novels, parts 1 and 2 of Talma's autobiographical memoirs ('Nederlandse Onbekendste Popster', or 'The Netherlands' Least Known Pop Star') with the two albums as musical companions. Balsturig is accompanied by a booklet of articles by Talma himself and illustrations by Edd.

For Talma's other works, see Meindert Talma & The Negroes, Meindert Talma & De Rode Kaarten, Meindert Talma & The Melisma Saxophone Quartet and/or De Jonge Boschfazant & Meindert Talma.
