Barry Walker-Upright Bass

 

Barry is from Birmingham Alabama and spent his ealy years there before attending the University of Alabama.  He became a teacher, then spent most of his career in sales before returning to teaching.  After six years as a  CTE (Career and Technical Education) teacher at Hendersonville High School (NC) , Barry has retired from real work and lives with his wife Elaine, on Lake Keowee in South Carolina

 

Having come from a family who loves music, he stumbled around for years musically before discovering the Upright Bass...which fit him.  Along with being the Upright Bass player and harmony singer in the band, he sings in the choir at his church, Covenant Presbyterian Church.
