Now that we’re approaching the new year, Widow’s Walk is working hard on writing new material along with some surprises! Stay tune for upcoming gigs in 2009!

New Website Finally Here!

Yep, Widow’s Walk is still alive and well. A lot has happened over the last month; we’ve just finished recording a new song – “Behind Glass” (hop over to our Myspace page to listen), and we’ve also posted a video of “Whispered Message” on our Youtube page. WW has been busy writing new material that we’re looking forward to debuting at our next gig. Stay tuned!

A Night To Remember

Rick — Fri, 19 Oct 2007 19:15:56 +0000

Thanks to everyone that came out to our show on Wednesday night, despite the short set this was one of our best shows yet! It was great to meet lots of new people, as well as some of you who have been following us since the beginning. We’d also like to thank Christina at Black Widow Promotions for putting such a great show together, as well as the other bands on the bill: Atma and Unexpect both put on killer sets, and After Forever was simply amazing! To be able to see such a powerful band in our own home town made for an unforgettable night. And thanks to the AF boyz and crew who came out to our rehearsal spot after the show for a little jamming, hope you guys weren’t too hung over for the Montreal show! We’ll be uploading some pictures from both the show and the party in next few weeks, and possibly even a video clip or two from our good friend Chuck.

As for what’s next, we’re just putting the final touches on our first demo CD which will include Moonrise, The Agenda, and Whispered Message (these were the first three songs of our set on Wednesday). We’re also looking forward to developing some of the new material we’ve been working on over the last few months.

* UPCOMING SHOWS *

Our next show is going to be an opening slot at Barrymore’s on January 5th, 2008. More details will be coming soon, so keep checking back.

Farewell Tristan

Rick — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 17:38:27 +0000

It is with regret that we announce that Tristan has parted ways with Widow’s Walk.Â We would like to thank Trist for everything he put into the band over the past few years, and wish him the best of luck with his future projects.

So now the search is on for a new guitarist!Â We’re looking for a guitar player who’s into prog as much as we are, has the confidence and skill to step up and rock when it comes to solos and keyboard/guitar unisons, has good gear and knows how to use it, and who is eager to become an equal part of the songwriting process.
