NANCY WALKER
Pianist and composer Nancy Walker has been recognized with honours Canada-wide. Her most recent album “Deeper Down” is a 2026 JUNO nominated recording in the category Jazz Album Of The Year (Solo). Past awards include the Montréal Jazz Festival’s Grand Prix de Jazz, the National Jazz Awards Keyboardist Of The Year Award, a JUNO nomination for Instrumental Album Of The Year, and an induction into the Mississauga Music Walk Of Fame. A dynamic improviser, an artful composer and a responsive accompanist, Nancy has been praised both for her work as a solo artist and as a musical collaborator. With several discs to her own credit as leader, she can also be heard on a wide range of recordings as a side player, by artists from Kirk MacDonald to Emilie-Claire Barlow. Most recently she can be heard on the 2024 recording Here’s To Life by John Neudorf (on which she is both pianist and co-producer), and Sarah Jerrom’s 2025 JUNO nominated Magpie.
