Author / TomVaylo

Tom Vaylo embodies the fusion of handpan (Hang) with magnetic electronic beats in a unique trip/hop, dub and world musical trip. Creative traveler and sound crafter, he had the opportunity throughout his 3 albums to collaborate with many musicians and perform- ers (flute, trumpet, saxophone, dance,...) ; and to present live with them his project all around Europe (France, Belgium, UK, Hungary). Musician since his very young age (flute, guitar, saxophone,...) and french handpan pioneer, Tom Vaylo has settled since 2007 his place in the handpan players community. Not only did he played in the most famous handpan festivals (Handpan Festival, HangOut UK, HUG festival,...), he also shared music and handpan playing lessons in the “Learn from the Best” serie on MasterTheHandpan, as well as in his own association in Lyon and in several international workshops (Handpan Academy, le RDV du Hang, ...).
