Seth Walker

|
Seth Walker�s voice and songs resonate with the driving delivery and infectious down-home style of classic blues and roots music. And although he is heavily influenced by guitar players--B.B. King, T-Bone Walker and Snooks Eaglin to name just a few--Seth also has a great gift for songwriting, as demonstrated on his brand-new release, Seth Walker (Pacific Blues).
Though he makes his home today in Austin, Texas, growing up in rural North Carolina surrounded by a musical and artistic family helped form Seth�s natural ability to entertain audiences with his music. W.C. Clark, long considered the Godfather of Austin�s blues scene, believes the music is in Walker�s blood. �Seth is from a long line of great players and singers. He�s rich with soul, a tasteful player and a warrior in the field.� Seth has honed his skills playing among the best blues musicians in the world. Having opened shows for icons such as Ray Charles, B.B. King, Robert Cray, Jimmie Vaughan and Aaron Neville. Walker�s made his recording debut in 1997, following it with three more CDs, culminating in his eponymously-titled recording debut for Jerry Hall�s Pacific Blues label. Walker describes his music as �a different point of blue� � an apt description for an artist whose songs, driving delivery and infectious down-home style resonates with the emotions, beauty, power and simplicity that plays such an integral role in the appeal of traditional Blues and Roots music. Seth Walker is a huge talent, bristling with potential � a potential he fulfills with the release of �Seth Walker�. |
