After recently having chart topping & international success with the track “Somewhere”, Johannesburg based rocker, Walt has released his long awaited debut album: “Until The End” to music stores countrywide in South Africa, marketed by Sheer Sound. (January ‘09)

Walt, a passionate singer/songwriter, was first introduced on the South African airwaves in 2003. His sound is defined by a melancholic and warm, distinctive lead vocal while his songs has strong melodies that tend to resonate around one’s head the morning after.

“Somewhere” was playlisted on almost every regional and national radio station in South Africa, including 5fm and Highveld Stereo. In addition the song went to Nr.1 on Highveld and various campus stations.

The track was chosen by Missing Children SA as their official theme song based on its somewhat controversial video which created a public awareness for The National Missing Kid’s Bureau and Walt made headlines on television & radio news bulletins across the country.

* Two nr 1 singles on National & Campus stations (Somewhere & Until the End)
* Signed International Song Licensing Deal with USA Record Label

Walt is currently performing with his band across South Africa to promote this new record.


INDUSTRY REVIEWS:

“…one of this artist’s strengths is that the uniqueness of the singer’s voice is difficult to pin a comparison to…part corrupt choirboy, part angelic rocker, it’s just one of those voices that you would instantly recognize, which is a rare gift in these days of manufactured Idols….” Derek Lynch – 5-fm – Review 26 / 07 / 2006

“…arguably one of the best rock offerings of 2009…greatly moved with my discovery. ‘Until the end’ is a disk that is melodic, catchy, and totally shreds from start to finish.” – MIO Review – Eddie Hatitye - June ‘ 09

“Until The End is guaranteed to bring Joburg based singer to the attention of many a household…the songs are consistently spot on for radio play… good production…Walt’s effortlessly able vox and songwriting with an ear for hits should ensure the album pleases the crowds.” - Muse Magazine Review – May 2009

WALT Albums:

“So Gone” 5-track E.P. – released independent - 2006
“Until The End” 11 track album - 2008
