The Walk is a concept album about the journey of a man throughout his life. Each song depicts a different point of importance on this journey and its momentum. The Walk features a symbolic, “impressionistic” rendition of a variety of styles and genres, including nods to Overbey’s inspirations in various forms of art, science, and humanities. Overbey states that The Walk is intended to make the audience “aware of its humanity” and that “everything” on the album has some form of symbolism. From heartbreaking feelings of nostalgia to more lighthearted and even comedic styles of music, Overbey  encapsulates what it means to be human. The album includes numerous forms of lyricism and musicality from vague, pop-like, electronically-based tunes, to focused indie acoustic ballads. Additionally, multiple other artists make appearances on The Walk, bringing in their own unique colors and styles to the picture. According to Overbey, The Walk has a loose basis in his own life, including thoughts, ideas, concerns, and hardships that were faced as he has matured. “While not everything is the same, I definitely created myself as a character in some ways-- or at least mimicked my thought patterns...” Overbey stated.
