Walk That Walk Live Blues at The Beachcoma

WALK THAT WALK HAS SERVED AS THE BOSTON-AREA TOURING BAND FOR TWO ROCK ‘N’ ROLL HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES — BO DIDDLEY AND JOHNNIE JOHNSON, PIANIST AND CO-WRITER IN CHUCK BERRY’S LEGENDARY COMBO.

IN 2022, THEIR “YOU GOOD.?!” LP HIT #1 IN MASSACHUSETTS & #15 ON ROOTS MUSIC REPORT’S U.S. RANKINGS.

As one of the premier bands on the impressive Boston blues scene, Walk That Walk is an east-coast phenomenon, but its midwestern roots run deep. The group’s material and fiery performances are born of the fertile sounds of Detroit and Chicago, where the electric blues was forged in the 1950s.

The band typically performed for crowds of 3000+ people during the tours with Bo and Johnnie, and they’ve also backed Carey Bell – Chicago blues-harmonica ace. They honed their unique, toe-tapping sound by performing at 800+ shows – and earning extensive airplay on 500+ radio stations with their debut self-titled release, and subsequent studio recordings. They have been a mainstay act in the renowned Boston Blues Festival for many years, performing alongside greats including Levon Helm, Gatemouth Brown, Eric Burdon, Son Seals, and Big Jack Johnson. Their work includes long-running engagements at the major New England rooms including the original House of Blues, the renowned Harper’s Ferry, and Johnny D’s Uptown Lounge.

As front-man Poppa C notes, “if you’re not passionate and high energy when you perform, people will head for the exits.” These days, the only reason folks are near the exits at Walk That Walk shows is because there’s nowhere else to stand!
