If You Like Country Music You'll Love Bradley Walker

If you are a fan of country music check out a guy named Bradley Walker.

Born in 1976 Bradley Walker is a native of Athens, Alabama. He was born with muscular dystrophy, and has been in a wheelchair all his life. He was a student at East Limestone High School where he played percussion in the school band.

Bradley's parents shared a love of music and his mother worked in a music store before he was born. He started singing when he was only four years old, and he grew up on a steady musical diet of vintage country, bluegrass, and gospel. Bradley started singing in talent competitions at the age of seven, and when he was 11, he appeared on the TV series Nashville Now, singing with the Oak Ridge Boys. A year later, when the Oak Ridge Boys sang on Jerry Lewis' annual fundraising telethon for the Muscular Dystrophy Association, they brought him along to perform with them.

In 1998, Walker formed a band, The Trinity Mountain Boys, and began to perform at bluegrass festivals. In 2001, he joined the Georgia-based group Lost Horizon. He was signed to Rounder Records, and released his debut album, Highway of Dreams, in 2006. The album was produced by Carl Jackson. For his performance on the album, he won the Male Vocalist of the Year Award from the International Bluegrass Music Association.

Walker's second album, Call Me Old-Fashioned, was produced by Rory Feek and recorded at the Joey + Rory studio out on their farm in 2016. Walker had known Joey and Rory Feek since 2007, and he was asked by Rory Feek to sing the hymn "Leave It There" at the funeral of Joey Feek in accordance with her wishes. Bill Gaither of the Gaither Music Group, who was also at the funeral service, heard Walker's performance and signed Walker to his label. The album includes a posthumous duet with Joey Feek, "In The Time That You Gave Me", using vocals she recorded before her death.The album was released on September 23, 2016 and debuted at No. 9 on the Top Country Albums chart.

In 2019 Bradley appeared at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival.

n 2020, walker collaborated with Jimmy Fortune, Ben Isaacs, and Mike Rogers to release an album Brotherly Love and a concert DVD/TV special filmed at Rory Feek's barn/studio near Columbia, TN.^[13] The album was released digitally on May 29, 2020, and the DVD and CD released on September 4, 2020.^[14] The concert film aired on the Circle network on October 20, 2020
