  • Country Music Artist Garrett Walker Joins Us Again
    GARRETT WALKER'S mom and dad were both singers and musicians. When he was a very young child they would often take him to gigs with them. He'd hang out in the back room and listen to the show - breathing in the music like air. After the break up of his parents at age 8, his life changed forever, and he uses his songs to paint the pictures of his journey since - songs about love and pain, hope and faith, and always about reality. Garrett's goal is to use his talent for all the right reasons. And talent he has - you'll hear it in the songs he writes and sings. From the heartfelt Wasn't Done Loving You and All The Above to the fun and cool vibe of Leave My Guitar Alone, you will be moved and entertained. This talented singer/songwriter is making his dreams happen in Nashville, as Charlie Daniels himself, told Garrett he needed to be in Nashville, after he did The Charlie Daniels, and will chat with me about his music career, his songwriting, performing - and much more.     ? http://www.reverbnation.com/garrettwalker   https://www.youtube.com/user/MusicofGarrettWalker
