Bio

Twenty-one-year-old Waylon Hanel is a self-taught musician and singer characterized by his textured vocals and endearing ability to captivate audiences. The Michigan native has quickly become recognized for his down-to-earth style, bold delivery and vivid storytelling. Named after country music legend Waylon Jennings (one of his biggest musical influences), Hanel has worked to hone his skills in developing a vintage signature style of his own. His music and recordings are a testament to his unique, artistic individuality and powerful delivery well beyond his years. 

In the five short years since Waylon launched his music career, he has performed as support act opening for Uncle Kracker, Trace Adkins, Chris Cagle, Elvie Shane, Tyler Farr and Jo Dee Messina among others. Waylon’s 2023 tour schedule is fast approaching more than 75 show dates. He released his self-titled EP (WAYLON HANEL/Nov. 2022) featuring five original tunes and is poised to introduce his sophomore CD, NEW OLD OUTLAWS in June 2023. (“New Old Outlaws Rewind,” a re-recording of the original title track, is spotlighted as the bonus track and receiving early welcome and applause from country radio and its listeners in the US and abroad.)
