Multiple Grammy and Latin Grammy Award winning drummer/composer Mark Walker has toured the world with a who’s who of jazz and world music - Oregon, Paquito D’Rivera, Lyle Mays, Michel Camilo, Eliane Elias and the Caribbean Jazz Project, to name a few - and is now touring regularly with ten time Grammy winner Arturo Sandoval’s band. He has appeared on over 100 albums.

His debut album “You Get What You Give” (featuring Paquito D’Rivera) made the top ten most played jazz albums on jazz radio in the US in 2019 and was met with critical acclaim worldwide. He received a nomination for his composition “Deep Six” at the 50th annual Grammy Awards.
