Walker Caine Re-embarks on Solo Adventure
Capt. Walker postpones new band CD to work on another solo effort.
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) June 27, 2005 -- With the help of daughter, band mate,
and string prodigy Abby Normal, Capt. Walker is now in the studio recording a
new acoustic EP to set the stage for a road trip this fall.
As a
songwriter, Walker knows how to craft a tune to appeal to both kids and
retirees; skateboards and cowboy boots. His delivery is sharp with quick
unexpected breaks that would make even the Led Zeppelin boys
jealous.
He’s very improvised when he plays and he seems to take great
pleasure in the words someone once told him - “you do everything wrong, but I
like it”.
“That sums up my life on the road alone” says Walker. “I’m not
out to be some industry sensation, I’m just out to have a good time with people
and explore new avenues in music by taking the best of things from the early
1900’s to today’s sounds. If you listen to early recordings; by today’s
standards they couldn’t sing and the same riffs were used over and over again;
I’m trying to tap into some of that rawness to show people that it’s all
relative. Some people just don’t get it, while others seem to understand it even
better than I do.”
And some people just like having him around. “He comes
across as a rock star, I was wondering what I got myself into. But I guess old
habits die hard. He is really a very down to earth guy and I love what he has to
say” said a now retired owner of a Texas night club. More humorously, another
club owner shook his finger at Walker saying “we normally get low-key
singer/songwriters here, but you’re more like a rock star. If you want to play
here again bring your own security.”
The new EP is expected to be
released in digital format early September 2005 by MLA Records and is yet
untitled. Walker will begin touring in late August possibly joined by one or two
band-mates from time-to-time or throughout the tour. Meanwhile, the latest band
LP by Walker Caine, “Soft Shoulder”, is in worldwide distribution and receiving
airplay on 3 continents. No tour has yet been scheduled for the
band.
