[IMC] For Immediate Release: Ryley Walker

[Caroline Baljon]

For Immediate Release

Name: Ryley Walker
Location: Indi go
Date: January 17th, 8pm-10pm

Ryley is a 24 year-old singer/songwriter and guitarist from Chicago. Having
kicked around Chicago’s experimental free/noise music scene for several
years, Ryley recently turned to a folk-rock sound inspired by some of his
heroes, among them Tim Hardin, Tim Buckley, and Bert Jansch. The result is
a poised and accomplished debut album, recorded in Chicago by Cooper Crain
(guitarist/keyboardist in Cave). The album will be released by Tompkins
Square in April 2014.

“With the charming swagger of jazz-folk troubadour Tim Buckley and the
resonant, full picking style of Bert Jansch, “The West Wind” comes from
Walker’s first widely available release, a three-song 12”. With acoustic
guitar in hand and a voice like browned butter, Walker swings and sways in
a lush string-and-piano arrangement right out of Buckley’s Starsailor; it
slowly picks up to a swirling gallop without bucking the rhythm.” – NPR
