Roots run deep for Tricia Walker. This Mississippi native is planted firmly in the genre of Southern music - derived from the musical heritage below the Mason-Dixon Line. Her style is noticeably influenced by Memphis R&B, Texas swing, New Orleans jazz, black gospel, and '60s radio.   Tricia has worked as a backing musician for Grand Ole Opry star Connie Smith, Paul Overstreet, Russ Taff, and Shania Twain. She was key in forming the original "Women in The Round," a songwriter group which includes Pam Tillis, Ashley Cleveland, and Karen Staley.   Her focus however remains on her own music. Tricia always offers an entertaining slice of her places and times, delivered with a beautiful voice and the ease of a veteran entertainer. Southern style never had it so good.  Visit Tricia’s website at www.bigfrontporch.com
