I have decided to release a brand new live album entitled “Greetings From Germany” for release exclusively on Bandcamp May 1st! Due to my concerts being cancelled from March onward, I am also like many others without work at the moment as I play live music inorder to make my living. I’m asking for a donation of $10 for the new live album & you can also download my entire discography for only $17. I truly hope that live music comes back soon & that you are all healthy & well. I’m crossing my fingers for my tour this September & October in Europe. I hope the borders re-open to travel eventually so I am able to come play music for you. Until then, stay healthy & thanks for all your support over the years! Here is the album below or go to www.orionwalsh.bandcamp.com as well. cheers.
