Blue Serenade by Greg Walker
Blue Serenade is a collection of songs that I wrote when I was in Austin from 2009-2018 (with a few exceptions). For the most part, they're a journal of my relationship with Sonora, my Texas muse—through the laughter & the tears.

I Can't Stop: by Greg Walker & Sonora Lee
All About the Groove: by Greg Walker & Eric Moon
Top of the Bay: by Marshall Styler & Greg Walker
