07/31/09 – The Dave Walker Band – Music Villa

The Dave Walker Band, based in Bozeman, MT, features the British blues singer nicknamed "the Voice". Dave Walker has toured and performed all over the world with some of rock's biggest legends. Now his amazing career continues with an incredible band that offers one of the region’s most inspired blues-rock performances.

Walker's past also includes a stint with Black Sabbath, briefly replacing Ozzy Osbourne. Walker has remained musical in his endeavors wherever they lead him. He relocated to Montana in the late 90's. In 2003, Walker went back to England to record a tribute to Sonny Boy Williamson for Mooreland Street Records. In 2007, he formed The Dave Walker Band and released his most recent album, Walking Underwater.

Walker has joined with some talented musicians to round out his band. Jimmy Lewis (guitar), Eddie T. (bass), Mike Gillan (drums), and Chris Cundy (keys), all contribute their styles to the mix. Walker's bandmates have performed in the region with other groups including: Montana Rose, Backburner, Jeni Fleming, The KGB Trio, www.twang, and Eightrack Mind among others. The band is described as blues-rock yet always seems to stretch the boundaries of that genre through tasteful musical exploration.
