"Cross-Tie" Walker
CLEVELAND, OH He is overwhelmed by the power & mystery of a piece of music & inspired most when there are those rare moments he's playing with a band & the rhythm section is in a deep, powerful groove. When out front playing guitar & singing, he feels like he's “driving a tank” & it's inspiring. Most humbling of all, he's been told on occasion that he has inspired someone.
