The Walkaways are a metropolitan DC-based band, making original music since 2006 with a sound that has been called “alt-country” (Washington Post, Washington City Paper, Washingtonian Magazine).  Their songs draw even more broadly, however, from Americana, folk, roots rock, country, indie, and classic rock. Key influences include Ryan Adams, Son Volt, Wilco, Springsteen, Uncle Tupelo, Josh Ritter, The Band, and Old 97s.
