Walker blends the styles of blues, ragtime, country, bluegrass, rock and old time jazz into his own unique style. Jorma Kaukonen of Hot Tuna
and the Jefferson Airplane says "Flat out... you have to hear this great musician... I'm blown away" and has employed Walker to teach at his
famous Fur Peace Ranch Guitar Camp for 6 years. In 2010 Walker won the NY Music Award for "Best Instrumental CD," sharing the honors with
Mariah Carey, Rufus Wainwright and Judy Collins among many others.
