Waylon released ‘The Escapist’ in October 2011, his first single of his second album ‘After All’. While he was working on his third album, he was a contestant at the Eurovision Song Contest. He decided to ask Ilse de Lange to join him, because they were recording an album as an occasional duo: The Common Linnets. Together they reached the second place for the Netherlands. He is the Dutch submission again in 2018. In 2016 he became a successful coach for popular Dutch TV-Shows: It Takes 2 and The Voice of Holland.

It was totally unexpected when Waylon released his fourth studio album ‘Seeds’ at November 18^th 2016. This album also reached the first place. That same year, on November 24^th and 25^th, he performed in a sold out Ahoy Rotterdam. He played songs of the Top 1000 Of All Times from Radio Veronica with a 15 man big band.

He ended the year 2017 in Ahoy again, the show was filled with fans for three nights in a row. The year 2018 is in sign of the Eurovision Song Contest, his new album, Ahoy and of course the new ‘The World Can Wait’ tour.
