Waylon – That’s How She Goes
Waylon may be a Dutch artist, but chances are you heard of him before, thanks to the fact he’s been on a huge international stage twice. As half of The Common Linnets, he ended second at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2014, and earlier this year, he managed to reach the finals of the competition once again as a solo artist. It’s very well possible you were one of the hundreds of millions of viewers who saw him perform.
Waylon (real name: Willem Bijkerk, but he named himself after his idol Waylon Jennings) has a country background. The raw song he contributed to ESC2018, Outlaw In ‘em, underlined this heritage. But there’s more where that came from. His recent album The World Can Wait just produced a new single. That’s How She Goes was written by American country singer Mitchell Tenpenny, but Waylon gives it his own distinct pop/rock stamp, making it a swinging, contemporary affair.
Deserves to become a hit outside the lowlands as well…
