Little known to Russian listeners, singer Waylon (real name Willem Bakerk) is a Dutch performer who, together with Ilse De Lange (Dutch country and pop singer), represented Holland in 2014 at the Eurovision Song Contest 2014, is expected to perform as a solo artist. debutant on Eurovision Song Contest 2018.
Earlier we wrote about the favorite of the event named Netta Barzilai which numerous critics and observers predict an unconditional victory at the upcoming Eurovision Song Contest 2018, and now we would like to introduce our readers to the work of another - and in our opinion, a very interesting participant in the competition named Waylon.
38-year-old singer Waylon began his musical career in 1995, and to date has two full-length albums (the last of which, entitled “The World Can Wait,” was released in 2018) and one single. Of the eleven tracks of “The World Can Wait,” most deserve attention as well-made rock, pop and country compositions, and the song “Outlaw In 'Em” makes a special impression, with which the singer will represent his country at the upcoming competition.
As usual, in March of this year the official presentation video for this song was filmed, which you can watch at official channel Eurovision Song Contest, however, it did not seem impressive to us for two reasons: firstly, the recording was made live, too chamber and hastily, and secondly, the sound suffers. Therefore, we will offer you a clip that Waylon made himself.
Waylon Music Albums
In general, we would like to draw the attention of readers to two albums of the singer, which can be found right now. A number of tracks are very well arranged and deserve to be stored on your phone and listen to in those moments when you want something light and not too loading.
Well, traditionally, as a bonus, the singer's joint track with compatriot Claudia de Breij (Claudia de Breij), which was released in 2016. Lightweight, pleasant and unobtrusive. Exactly what is needed in our complex and unpredictable reality.
