Born in shelby NC. Walter spent his entire teenage years dedicated to learning as many instruments and styles of playing as possible. At the age 17 he began work at 88.3 wgwg radio station as the afternoon DJ and aired his on show on friday afternoon. Carolina drive featured artist from all across the carolinas. On the weekends Walter would build stages and run lighting and sound with star light sound. Everything he could to be involved with music. At age 19 he walked into a recording studio to record an extinsive demo. He titled it, more than grey. It was recorded live in the studio with very minimal over dubs and is now available for your listening pleasure. And yes i DID write this in third person, i just think it sounds better :-)

"Testify"
Took me a while
But I'm finally here
I just wanna testify
Make it crystal clear
See I've been picked out
To be picked on
Talked about out
my friend'smouth
I've been beat down
Til he turned my life around.
Seems like I alwaysfall short of bein worthy
Cuz I aint good enough
but he still loves me
I aint no superstar
The spotlight aint shinin on me
cuz I aint good enough
but he still loves me
Loves me
I used to wake up some days
and wish I'd stayed asleep
cuz i went to bed on top of the world
today the world's on top of me
everybody's got opinions
(they share)
They aint been in my position
(they don't care)
that it breaks my heart when I hear what they have to say about me yeah
(what they say)
seems like I always fall short (fallin short)
of bein worthy (Lord I aint worthy)
Cuz I aint good enough (no no)
but he still loves me (still loves me)

Well, keep it simple means: Halt es einfach! But what sounds better in German is Nimm's leicht, take it easy!
