Walk Don't Run

What happens when four talented, seasoned musicians, each possessing a pure and unadulterated love for rock of the punk variety, come together to make music? Well, my friends, then you have Walk Dont Run, who in less than a year together have already proven that they have tremendous staying power-- just ask any of the countless Tri-State kids-turned-fans who have had the good fortune of hearing their music and catching their live shows! Walk Dont Run formed in Febuary of 2003 when bassist John McArdle and drummer Zeb Hargis joined guitarist/vocalist Thomas Rector and guitarist Scott Miller. With a repertoire of tunes already written and ready to be performed, the Four started playing shows in the area neighboring their hometown of Henderson, Kentucky almost immediately. The public response was overwhelming, and Walk Dont Run went into the studio the this last Christmas season to record a 10-song CD which they aptly titled "Piercing Through the Backseat of Life" The music of these individuals could generally be described as a melodic breed of punk rock, but the songs also have a definite strength, intensity, and fierceness to them-- a sound which serves to separate Walk Dont Run from other punk bands of today. Again, the response was staggering, and their music garnered comparisons to industry greats like Bad Religion, Rancid, and AFI-- and although elements of those bands can be heard in the music, the members of Walk Dont Run draw from such a broad range of influences that to compare them only to other bands would be doing an injustice to their unique and powerful sound. Walk Dont Run plan to head off on their first tour this summer, covering the entire eastern United States. The band loves playing live, and hopes that their enigmatic stage presence will continue to draw the attention of many. So only one question remains: what lies ahead for the brilliant gentlemen of Walk Dont Run? Only time will tell... but the sky is the limit.
