Nancy Walker

Nancy is one of the most expressive instrumentalists and a mainstay of the Canadian Jazz festival scene for the past ten to fifteen years. She is also a highly sought after side musician – by instrumentalists and vocalists alike.

“Nancy Walker extends an invitation to the listener to enter her very unique world of pianistic journeys. Hers is a joyous leaping loping stomping approach to the keyboard that harkens to the era of a strong left hand. There are many influences swirling in her music; there is also this strong sense of self, a definite presence of Nancy Walker as a musical entity.” Len Bukowski, CODA Magazine
