Just A Friend

Early archive, self-released 2006 solo EP from Luke Walton’s (Luke Francis Walton; not the NBA coach) teenage songwriter period. Documented on archived lukewaltonband.com (~17:40); Amazon Music lists July 16, 2007 (likely redistribution metadata). Part of a long-running writing and recording practice that later continued through The Luke Walton Band, FEiN, and Scoobert Doobert: listed here for provenance, not as a current listening recommendation.

Luke Walton, guitar, piano, voice, songwriting. Six tracks with archived lyrics: Prelude (instrumental) · One Take · Just A Friend · Preschool · Who Needs Tears · Dirty Blonde.

Chronology: parallel band line at La Costa Canyon (solo EPs ran at the same time) — Rock I IV V club (2006) · Casey McSocial (first band) · Mannequin (Walton founded) · Blue Suburbia (The Other Side, 2009). Solo releases: Heart in Hand (2008) → Goodbye/Hello (2010, The Luke Walton Band).
