Dave Walker is a brilliant architect, whose work can be seen
internationally. I believe that being two people who think visually is one of the great strengths of the Duo.

Dave is not only a superb guitar player, having received a BFA in Jazz Performance from the City College of New York, he’s also one of the nicest, kindest people I’ve ever met.
