My real name is Hugo Peyrony and I am CEO at WhileWild which is also my artist name. I am a french music and video producer specialised in video production, post-production, audio production and photography. I started playing piano since I was 2 years old and then I decided to play violin, guitar, bass, drums, ukulele and harmonicca. The WhileWild project was born after having my MBA in European and international business Law with the Sorbonne University in Paris. I started working as an international corporate in Florida, United States and it is from this moment that the WhileWild project grew because I started to travel a lot.

The different countries in which WhileWild inspiration has born, allowed the creation of distinct melodies from each other. If the first inspirations go through pop, folk, hip-hop, electro and also rock, this adventure must be creative and give the place for imagination.
