I was lucky enough to have been born into a loving and caring family. I started playing guitar at the age of 15, bought my first real guitar at age 16 (Ovation Standard Balladeer). Attempted to write my first song shortly thereafter. And so it goes. I am now the big six O. My songs are a reflection of where I was at that time and in that place. Sometimes years would go by without writing a song and then for some unknown reason I would write 4 songs in a month. Who's to say how this all works, but it brings me great joy and gives meaning to my life.

Positive comments always appreciated.

Walt is a master sound engineer, professional studio musician and just an all around good guy. His talents are truly immense, yet his demeanor - modest and unassuming. Walt started Advanced Recording Concepts (originally called "The 25th Track") in 1987.  His sound studio is a state of the art facility that Walt personally created in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Walt isn't just a sound engineer. His musical performances are as varied as playing an original B-3 organ for the BOK Inauguration as well as keyboards for various national acts. His love of music and sound engineering is demonstrated by his commitment to the University of Tulsa, Tulsa Community College and Tulsa Technology students where he has been the primary source of sound engineering education in Northeast Oklahoma. Walt is also a dedicated husband, father and a good friend.
