Both his parents were classically qualified music artists, and Walker’s child years was filled with traditional music, but there is also a lot of nation, rock and roll, and pop tossed in there, as well. He discovered your guitar when he is at his late teenagers and, because of a savvy uncle, he was launched to the blues, and dropped beneath the spell of blues performers like T-Bone Walker, Snooks Eaglin, and B.B.
