Anthony Walker has built a consistent reputation as one of the most reliable and incisive songwriters in New Jersey for the better part of the last two decades. The lyrical songcraft that has become his trademark is firmly rooted in the great Americana traditions and, at times, detours seamlessly into the realms of indie-rock, country, and R&B. From an early age, he’s drawn comparisons to icons of the genre, notably: Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Jeff Tweedy, and Ryan Adams. His evocative, award-winning songwriting and ability to connect powerfully with audiences has led to appearances ranging from high-profile cross-country stops, music festivals, theaters, clubs, bars, coffeehouses, and even living rooms across the U.S.
Walker, sometimes accompanied by his band, The Medicine Chest, has shared the stage with Arlo Guthrie, Ingrid Michelson, Clem Snide, Mikael Jorgensen (Wilco), Railroad Earth, and hundreds of other national and local acts.
