While there is not much information floating around in cyber space about Jason Walker just yet, I still wanted to profile him for todays “New Music Friday.” His current single “Down” was featured on last weeks “The Vampire Diaires” and is quickly becoming one of the most sought after songs since the episode. He co-wrote the song with his friend Molly Reed, who is also the female singing with him. Walker has also written songs for other artists such as Clay Aiken, Luke Menard, Nevertheless, and Remedy Drive. Walker is married and lives in Tennessee with his wife. He just wrapped up a mini-tour with friend & American Idol finalist Chris Sligh, playing shows all over the south-east. He has just finished recording his EP, and its available now to download on Amazon and Itunes.

See – not much information is known about this guy just yet, but his song is absolutely beautiful and well worth your time listening to. You can check out the song “Down” above.

Lyrics to “Down” by Jason Walker

I don’t know where I’m at
I’m standing at the back
And I’m tired of waiting
Waiting here in line, hoping that I’ll find what I’ve been chasing.

I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try, I know I’m going to fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
Never know why it’s coming down, down, down.

Not ready to let go
Cause then I’d never know
What I could be missing
I’m missing way too much
So when do I give up what I’ve been wishing for

I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try, I know I’m going to fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
Never know why it’s coming down, down, down.
Oh I’m going down, down, down
Can’t find another way around
And I don’t want to hear the sound, of losing of what I never found.

I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try, I know I’m going to fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
I never know why it’s coming down, down, down.
I shot for the sky
I’m stuck on the ground
So why do I try, I know I’m going to fall down
I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?
Oh it’s coming down, down, down.
