The Walkmen are five New Yorkers who have played rock music since they were 10 years old. All five originally hail from Washington DC, United States where they attended St. Albans high school and played in several bands. Over the years, and in their many ensembles, they’ve experimented with punk, noise, and a lot of “garage” sounds.

Great band. Caught them supporting Idlewild in Manchester a few years back. A breath of fresh air. Don't get all the hate toward KOL below though. Nothing wrong with them at all.

"Kings of Leon are alright, but they should be opening for The Walkmen not the other way around. Nuff said!" Agreed... Went to that show Thursday night.. GJ guys, I dont believe alot of Kings of Leon fans are fans of yours though... bastards! I didn't even know you guys were going to open, When we walked in i was like "Holy shit this sounds familiar, Sounds like The Walkmen! and bam it was u guys :) <3
