Cedar Anthony Walton, Junior (born January 17, 1934) is an American hard bop jazz pianist. Walton grew up in Dallas, Texas. His mother was an aspiring concert pianist, and was Walton's initial teacher. She also took him to jazz performances around Dallas. As a result, he was exposed to a wide range of jazz, including Nat King Cole, Errol Garner, Mary Lou Williams, Earl Hines, Hank Jones, Oscar Peterson, Lester Young and Dizzy Gillespie. Walton cites Nat King Cole, Bud Powell, Thelonious Monk and Art Tatum as his major influences on piano. He began emulating recordings of these artists from an early age, and also began composing "hieroglyphics" for friends to play along with him.
