Featured Photos: The Walkmen at The Fillmore, San Francisco, CA - Jan. 21, 2009

Formed by Washington, DC, natives in the year 2000, The Walkmen [ tickets ] are the co-creation of players from two groups: Jonathan Fire*Eater (Paul Maroon, Walter Martin and Matt Barrick) and The Recoys (Peter Bauer and Hamilton Leithauser). Not only are The Walkmen inspired by such groups as The Pogues [ tickets ], The Velvet Underground [ tickets ], Joy Division [ tickets ] and Pixies [ tickets ], they strive to achieve their sound by making a point of playing vintage instruments and recording in a converted industrial space, a studio dubbed Marcata Recording in Harlem. The Walkmen are currently on a mini tour in support of their new album "You & Me," and are scheduled to play two more shows on the itinerary. Tonight (1/23) fans can catch them in Portland, OR, and tomorrow (1/24) in Seattle, WA.  / Read more
