About Walk.DontWalk

Walk.DontWalk's music embodies energetic guitar rock blended with a pithy punk attitude and a ska tinged edge. Quite simply, this concoction produces music that makes you want to dance and sing your heart out. Hailing from the West Midlands they found themselves stretched beyond the local scene and ventured to London looking for the brighter lights and more lost souls to convert to the Walk.DontWalk ethic. After just a single taste they were hooked and soon found themselves as favourites with promoters and playing regular slots around the UK and on the London circuit. Thus followed stints supporting the Paddingtons, the Young Knives, and Vincent Vincent and the Villians to name but a few. In 2007, not happy with just playing live Walk.DontWalk locked themselves in a studio with Loz Brazil (Arctic Monkeys) and self released a sell out EP entitled “Flings and roundabouts”. However, it is Walk.DontWalk's never failing emphatic, energetically charged, live performances which have earned them a devout following of fans throughout the UK. Frontman Rob delivers his everyman's accessible, yet insightful, lyrics with passion and verve. The songs are full of catchy phrasings and sing-along choruses depicting drunken debauchery and the girls that got away! Vocal harmonies are added by Chewie, who furthermore injects the tunes with layers of melodic, quirky keys and sublimely soulful trumpet lines. On drums, Paul's unyielding clinical beats propel the tunes, often exuding a stop-start, choppy drive which is executed with an almost surgical accuracy. Dan holds it all down and provides the bottom- end with trippy-yet-solid, funky basslines that are guaranteed to make you move your feet.
