From a fan-financed album to a spot on 'Beavis and Butt-Head,' Jake Walden has ...

The conversation doesn’t start, exactly. And it never ends.
With Jake Walden , the dialogue goes on and on and on, living and breathing on its own circuitous spirit.
What to make of Walden? He seems incapable of one-word answers, for starters. There’s just too much going on in that home entertainment center of a brain of his.
Ask him if it it is true that he never owned a computer of any sort until five years ago, something that can be covered with a simple, “Yes,” or maybe, “No,” and a few minutes later, he’s tangentially explaining, “The irony of me is that I’m yin-yang. I’m introverted, yet extroverted. I love to engage, but it takes everything out of me. I like to work in privacy, but everything I do is for someone else, and I need to share it always, or I feel like I am not accountable to my fans ...”
“Yeah,” you say. “But, this computer, was it a Dell or a Mac or what?”
“Oh I don’t know. A regular computer,” he says. “Probably a PC. I can’t remember.”
“What made you buy it?”
“MySpace, actually,” he says. “It was all about MySpace.”
And then it makes sense, the computer allowed the introverted extrovert to reach his fans, “The Dreamers,” as they are known. First it was MySpace, then Facebook and the social media funding Web site KickStarter.com . The man who never operated his own computer until five years ago was suddenly using these powerful online platforms to pursue his dream to become a singer-songwriter who might change lives and become relevant in the music industry.
In that order.
“I don’t care about being famous. I just want to play small theaters and play for 1,000 people,” he said during an interview Wednesday at the Egg & I on West Sahara Avenue. “I want to do a show that leaves them changed.”
Based in Los Angeles, Walden is making a one-off appearance tonight in Las Vegas at the hepcat Fremont East hovel Don’t Tell Mama Piano Bar. The night begins at 7, and Walden is set to take the stage at 8. The event is free and open to the public to those ages 21 and over.
Walden will be playing from his new release, “Same Something Different,” a mesmerizing and inherently personal collection of songs with broad-ranging lyrics that still reach the listener viscerally.

“Oh yeah, they'll make fun of it,” Walden says, laughing. “There's a line, 'Even whores can fall for someone,' and it'll be (dropping into a Beavis impression), 'Heh-heh, he said whores!' I'm fine with that. I'ma serious guy, but I don't take myself
Gaines: Oh yeah! Around the time I formed my band, we were actually able to see Slave, who was really big at the time. From time to time, we would go into the studio with Steve Washington, who was the leader of Slave, and we would sneak in on James
"Oh yeah!" she laughs before a pensive mood settles upon her. "I don't know… I think it's weird, comparing the music you're doing with your personality. I have a temper, and I think my music is just showing a weakness for a certain kind of melodic
Stone: Oh yeah, we're buddies. We go to the pub every Friday. (She laughs) You know how you'd expect the Royal Family to be? You'd expect them to be very regal? And they're not like that. They're just lovely, lovely chaps. They make me laugh.
I mean, who else do you hear talking about like, Oh yeah, I want to make beautiful hip-hop music? That doesn't seem to be a concern for anybody out there. So I think, OK, that'll be my thing then, that'll be my territory. I'm just trying to make pretty
