Bio:

Jake Walker, “The Ambassador of New York Blues”, has earned an international reputation as “one of the very finest Blues guitar players and singers anywhere” (Danny Bryant, Rounder Records). He has entranced audiences around the world with a style of guitar playing and singing that is at once “deeply soulful and grooving” (Blues Blast), and extraordinarily original, setting himself apart from a sea of copycats and headbangers masquerading as Bluesmen. Jake Walker's many international tours as frontman have taken him to Holland, Belgium, England, France, and especially Italy, where he has headlined numerous festivals, and filled historic halls and squares with delighted fans.

Jake's debut C.D., Confidence Man was produced and mixed by multi-platinum selling produced Elliot Mazer (Neil Young, Janis Joplin, The Band, Jerry Garcia, Santana, The Who), and features famed Blues musicians such as Mark Naftalin (Paul Butterfield, Mike Bloomfield, Duane Allman, Van Morrison), and Arthur Neilson (Shemekia Copeland, Cyndi Lauper). Confidence Man has received rave reviews, garnering comparisons with Freddie King, Otis Rush, and Albert King, among other Blues Gods, while always winning praise for Jake's own very personal, powerful, and nuanced approach to the idiom-- “Jake pays tributes to the masters, but he doesn't imitate them” (George Willet, 12-Bar Rag).
