Reppard Walker

Reppard Walker is a singer-songwriter based in Southeast Kentucky, writing and recording independent indie-folk and acoustic music.

Hello friend. Thanks for stopping by. I'm Reppard Walker. This section used to be in the third person but that kind of felt weird. As long as I can remember, I've had a passion for music. I am a sucker for a good hook and have spent many hours attempting to craft them myself. I hope that I have, at least in part, been successful. The transition from being a listener only to also being a creator of music started when I was around 13. I found this beat-up electric guitar at a yard sale for somewhere around $10. I don't remember the brand or if it even had a brand but I remember it had some kind of painted eagle decal on it. I promptly scraped that off, restrung it, and wired it into an old stereo amplifier. I proceeded to teach myself how to play the worst out of tune Nirvana and Green Day renditions anyone has ever heard. It was magic and I've been hooked since.

Life outside music

After music I started a family and transitioned to a career in software development. We moved from Georgia to Southeast Kentucky in 2019. We have a small menagerie that includes three dogs, one cat, a python, and around eleven chickens.

Back to music

Through all the ups, downs, and changes, music has remained a constant in my life. I enjoy playing various instruments and regularly play drums for worship at church. After a 20-year hiatus from official releases, I am currently working on recording new music. My debut EP, WINTERSKIN, is slated for release Winter 2025-2026.
