JASON WALKER 5X BILLBOARD # 1 RECORDING ARTIST ABOUT
Jason Walker grew up in Pittsburgh, singing in church choirs and then in local R&B and Blues bands. He first shined on the national spotlight with a winning performance on TV’s Its Show Time at the Apollo.
Following his TV debut, he moved to New York City and was quickly signed to dance music icon Junior Vasquez's, label, JVM, where he recorded two albums, “This Is My Life” and “Flexible,” garnering three Top 10 Billboard hits (“My Life,” “No More,” and “Movin’ On”), two Billboard #1s (“Foolish Mind Games” and “Set It Free”) Jason and Tony Moran first met through Junior Vasquez when Vasquez commissioned Tony Moran to remix “Set It Free.” Jason would go on to receive 2 IDMA (International Dance Music Award) nominations including one for Best Breakthrough Dance Artist.
In 2010, Walker released his third full-length album “Leave It All Behind” independently, landing his seventh Top 20 Billboard Dance hit. His eighth release, “Raise Your Hands,” climbed to #17 on the Billboard charts. He followed with “Beat Don’t Stop” (a song that peaked at #5 on Billboard), “Tell It To My Heart” (an explosive re-imagining of Taylor Dayne’s pop classic, produced by Bimbo Jones, that hit #10 on Billboard). In 2016, Jason rejoined forces with Moran and turned out 2 more Billboard Dance # 1's, “So Happy” and “Say Yes”, along with stunning videos directed by Karl Giant.
To support their newest single, and most recent Billboard Dance # 1 (making this Jason's 5th and third consecutive) “I’m in Love with You,” Tan Man Music commissioned remixes from some of the top names in dance music, including Rosabel, Moto Blanco, Sted E and Hybrid Heights, Mike Cruz, Tommer Mizrahi, Strobe, Dinaire and Bissen, Boris, and more.
Moran and Walker also re-enlisted videographer Karl Giant, who, in turn, brought in artist Randy Polumbo, whose work has been exhibited at the Bass Museum in Miami, Art Basel Miami Beach, Burning Man, and Coachella; as well as a few World champion and Olympic ice skaters, all to create a visual work of art for the “I’m in Love with You” music video. A new Jason Walker album with Tony Moran will be released in 2019. HIGHLIGHTS
