There are several musicians and bands named "Wally": 1. An former English progressive rock band 2. An Irish rapper from Portaloise, co. Laois 3. An American rapper from Louisiana 4. A Belgian singer-songwriter from Antwerp 5. Wally, a New Haven band formed essentially of brothers Teo and Lucas Hernandez, and their best friend Alex Blair. 1. Wally, led by the singer-songwriter Roy Webber, was an English progressive rock band, which originated in Harrogate, Yorkshire, in the early 1970s. Led by singer songwriter Roy Webber, Wally came out of Harrogate, England in the early 70s and after playing the usual northern pub rock circuit that included venues in Manchester, Harrogate, Leeds, Bradford, they entered a Melody Maker competition and made it through to the finals at London's Roundhouse in 1972. They didn't win with that honour going to a Prog Rock band named Druid. They caught the eye of one of the judges, Bob Harris of The Old Grey Whistle Test fame. He took the band under his wing and obtained a recording contract with Atlantic Records. Their debut album, Wally, was produced by Bob Harris and Rick Wakeman and released in 1974. After its release the band, managed by Brian Lane, famous for managing Yes, took off on a series of tours that took in most of Britain, Japan and the USA. Before their second album, Valley Gardens, was recorded they changed keyboard players with Nick Glennie-Smith replacing Paul Gerrett. However by now touring had taken its toll and by 1976 the band had begun to fall apart to eventually split sometime around 1976-78. 3. Tevin Wallace, better known by his stage name Wally is American rapper from Fairfax, Virginia who grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana. Beginning his career in late 2008/early 2009, Wally's first mixtape entitle "Love" was released April 3, 2010. Later that year, his second EP, "The Light Project" was released. 4. Wally gained major popularity when teaming up with Johannes Faes (Tourist LeMC) for Horizon, his major selling single coincidentally released March 22, 2016, the same day as the Isis-attacks in the Brussels Metro and Brussels airport, Zaventem. Shortly after he released the single misère and in 2017 his first full length album Uitzicht was released. 5. Wally is a Connecticut band made up of three primary members who continue to make dream pop through their 10+ year friendship. They've performed and collaborated in Boston and New York City, with their release of demos on an EP entitled "Dear" gaining a strong and dedicated following on streaming and social services.
