Toi 'The Bamboo Shaker'

The third runner-up of Astro’s Akademi Fantasia season six, Khairul Nizam Baharom or Toi, is not just a singer. He is also a multi-talented performer and musician who won 2 Gold Medals in the World Championship of Performing Arts in Hollywood in 2005 for playing the Angklung.

Toi has been playing the scintillating traditional bamboo musical instrument for 13 years and the guitar for 11 years. Singing and dancing are in his blood, especially traditional dances such as zapin and joget. Besides performing in Hollywood, Toi has also played the angklung in Denmark, Dubai and Jakarta.

Ibu Toi Meninggal Dunia, 24 April 2010

Innalillahi wa inna illahi rajiun....dan sekali lagi hati merasa hiba dan sebak melihat wajah-wajah yang kehilangan ibunda tercinta. Kepayahan, kepedihan, kehilangan jelas kelihatan dari mata yang layu dan bergenangan air mata. Perjalanan sejauh 300km 4 hari yang lalu terlalu berbeza, dan matlamat cuma satu, moga sampai dengan selamat dan sempat melihat wajah ibunya buat kali yang terakhir. Almarhumah Hasnah menghempuskan nafas terakhir pada pagi 24 April 2010. Al Faatihah, semoga Allah mengampuni segala dosanya, menerima amal kebajikannya dan menempatkan Almarhumah di tempat yang terbaik disisiNYA. Tahziah untuk Toi sekeluarga.
