Walt Leuzinger

Story

I'm old. I didn't start out that way it just sort of happened. Along the way I learned more and more about being a better musician and songwriter. With so many years to learn and practice at my disposal, you might think that I'd be pretty accomplished at playing music and writing songs by now. Well, I'd like to think so, but I'm old and easily fooled, so I'll let you be the judge.
