Walk open their EP with the affirming
“Walk” that sets the tone and outlines the blue-print that the
band attentively follow. That is, the marriage of bluesy influenced
guitar, subdued yet emotive vocals and off kilter beats that urge the
songs forward. “Streetlight” provides the most engaging moment
showing the duo delve deeper, introducing soft strings that give way
to their best vocal and lyrical performance. Here we see a departure
from the pre-established comfort zone and in this they produce a
delicate and beautiful piece that stands elevated. Whilst this is a
strong release one can't help but hope for less emphasis on making a
progressive blues record and for more of the soaring strings
witnessed on “Streetlight”, for here Walk truly shine.
