RYLEY WALKER
Special Guest CIAN NUGENT
Whelans Upstairs Tuesday 3rd June 8pm
Tickets €12 incl booking fee from Whelanslive.com
With a powerful voice that spans ranges and eras, and an effortless approach to a fine melody on the guitar, Ryley Walker sets the bar higher for the modern folk artist.
The 24 year-old recently turned to his folk-rock sound, inspired by some of his heroes Bert Jansch, Tim Buckley, and Tim Hardin. After kicking around Chicago’s experimental free/noise music scene and touring extensively with an array of artists, he grew into his current laid-back and folk-driven approach to tunes, resulting in several cassettes, singles, and a highly acclaimed EP The West Wind. His poised and accomplished debut LP All Kinds Of You, is due out April 2014 on the seminal Tompkins Square label. With a stellar backing band, Walker brings a swift sound that recalls the golden eras of folk, lush with soul.
