Seth Walker is often cited as one of the most prolific contemporary Americana artists on the scene today. Heโ€™s a multi-dimensional talent who combines a gift for melody and lyric alongside a rich, Gospel-drenched, Southern-inflected voice with a true blue knack for getting around on the guitar. His most recent studio album, Are You Open, produced by Jano Rix of The Wood Brothers, and a string of singles, including โ€œWe Got This,โ€ โ€œSpirits Movingโ€ and a cover of Van Morrisonโ€™s classic โ€œWarm Loveโ€ further build upon this reputation.ย 

Most recently, Walker added published author to his oeuvre with his first memoir, โ€˜Your Van Is On Fire.โ€™ A riotous and charming melange of a touring musicianโ€™s life, the book is comprised of many short essays, poems and paintings he’d accumulated over a near 30-year career. Written during the 2020 lockdown, Walker offers a first hand account of an artist in perpetual motion whoโ€™s dedicated his life to chasing the muse wherever it may lead.ย 

Seth Walker is currently based in Asheville, NC after previously residing in Austin, New Orleans and Nashville. Heโ€™s used those experiences wisely, soaking up the sounds and absorbing the musical lineage of these varied places. With a bluesmanโ€™s respect for roots and tradition, coupled with an appreciation forโ€”and successful melding ofโ€”contemporary songwriting, Seth sublimely incorporates a range of styles with warmth and grace. Perhaps Country Standard Time said it best: โ€œIf you subscribe to the Big Tent theory of Americana, then Seth Walker โ€“with his blend of blues, gospel, pop, R&B, rock, and a dash countryโ€”just might be your poster boy.โ€
