WALKER IS BROKEN UP AND WILL NOT BE BOOKING ANY FUTURE SHOWS

Hello and thank you for visiting the Walker tribute page. They are no longer together, but this will stand as a testament of sorts to one of the greatest pop-punk bands to ever come out of the Midwest. I was not involved with Walker, but to answer some frequently asked questions, a reunion show at this point looks to be extremely unlikely, though there is a chance that eventually there will be a remixed discography with unreleased tracks and instrumentals from the scrapped second full-length.

Discography:

Recordings that never came to fruition:
-a split 7" with Squirtgun (cancelled)
-a split 7" with Mary Me (announced in Direction booklet; never happened)

I also run a tribute page for The Letterbombs, so feel free to add it.

The first time I heard this band, I was living in Portage, Indiana. A friend Tony DePerio played me a mix tape of a couple songs. As silly as it sounds, it was all the pick slides that sold me! In the end, what keeps me still listening to this band is the genuine song writing! It takes me back to the days of zip-up hoodies, Discount, and J Church.

Walker was one of my favorite bands during high school! Man, hearing the songs on this myspace brings back memories. When is the reunion? Does anyone have any videos of them live....never got to see them live... Please contact me if you have any videos!

I remember Jeremy or I reviewing your record for someone. It was either Chicken is Good Food or MRR. I liked it and still do.
