“It is an incredible feeling to be able to fill the air with music and be a part of its marvelous effects on people.”…Walt Richardson
Walt Richardson has an incredible musical history. He is a self-taught musician who began to play guitar at age nine. He is largely influenced by the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, and more. Taking akin to the groove style of playing, much like his influences, Walt plays rhythm guitar and feels the groove of the song is very important. The groove is a huge part of what music is to Walt! He has played his music all over the world and has had the opportunity to meet stellar artists like Carlos Santana, Burning Spear, Taj Mahal, sharing the stage with bands like Third World to Ziggy Marley.
Walt’s music is very broad, open, and reveals mixed genres. His original music derives from his own spin of folk, rock, reggae, and added African and Latin influences. Having started as a street musician and working his way up to world tours, Walt Richardson has always made his home in Tempe, Arizona. He celebrates Tempe in his songs! On Walt’s 60th birthday, The City of Tempe, AZ declared January 18th to be “Walt Richardson Day”. He was the first artist enshrined on the Tempe Music Walk of Fame.
I am a soul, living out and enjoying life as a songwriting, storytelling, and performing, musician…”-Walt Richardson.
