Biography: Town Walsh was born and raised in Oak Cliff, Texas. His parents being both teachers and musicians saw to it that he learned to play piano before he could ride a bicycle. When he was 13 his big brother taught him some licks on the bass and all the chords on the guitar. In high school, Town formed his own "Rap" band, and at age 19 he was performing live in Deep Ellum with a heavy metal/punk band. He has been in several bands over the years covering many genres of music. Town’s major influences are the Rolling Stones, Dwight Yoakam, and Steve Earle. Town has been prolifically writing songs for years and said it was time to get some of his own music recorded, which he did just that and it was well worth the wait!

Town Walsh turns in his debut offering with a message. Walsh declares that he will not be like all the others. He will not have twelve songs that all sound the same. He will make sure you don’t forget hearing this album. The message is received loud and clear. From the opening track, you’ll notice something a little different. Walsh’s instrumentation is an unexpected fresh look at Texas music delivery. Instead of pounding out tune after tune of equally orchestrated band tracks with the vocal buried somewhere, Walsh makes you understand his voice is an instrument, too. The featured solo instrument on every track is Walsh himself. Unlike so many who simply mouth the lyrics while blowing air across the vocal cords, Walsh actually performs each song. By the end of the disc, not only have you been thoroughly entertained, you have come to know the distinct tonal quality and unique features of Walsh’s voice. Unique is an illusive rung on the ladder of musical success, but Walsh has claimed it as a platform, and is prepared to climb with fervor and purpose. From sparsely acoustic tracks, to fully orchestrated numbers, Town Walsh offers an array of diverse tunes while staying within his Americana genre. Easily adapted to any mood, Walsh is a musical chameleon, garnering fans with his well-written stories and his imaginative delivery. -Lucky Boyd, Co-Founder, MyTexasMusic.com
