A Crowdfunded Record

Help Me Make
My Debut Album

Daniel Walker

I'm Daniel Walker — a musician, filmmaker, and performer. After years of honing my craft, we're ready for the big leagues. This is the very first time I've ever asked my community for financial backing, and it's an honor to be here — grateful beyond words for the support we've built for each other over the years, and ready to take this next step together.

From this room to the rooms I've dreamed of: the Moody Center · Red Rocks · Madison Square Garden. Getting in now means you were here from the start.
