At the 61st annual Philadelphia Folk Festival, I sat down with Brian Walker, the force behind A Day Without Love. The festival, known for its diverse lineup and intimate setting, felt like the perfect place to chat about overcoming adversity, music’s power, and the importance of community.
Brian Walker, who has been on an inspiring journey from Philly to Boston, shared his thoughts on what it means to play at the folk festival in his hometown.
Throughout our conversation, we discussed his songwriting process—how he turns personal struggles and societal issues into heartfelt and impactful songs.
In this episode of The High Note podcast, Brian talks about the challenges he’s faced on his journey and how music and storytelling has helped him overcome them.
