About this episode
Joshua Ray Walker discusses his cancer journey and recent music releases.
Joshua Ray Walker is my guest on this episode of That’s How I Remember It. Joshua is a great singer-songwriter from Dallas, Texas, and in 2023, he was diagnosed with cancer. He was told at one point that his situation was dire. So, he went to work. He is now cancer-free, but has put out three records in a twelve-month period, which he calls “The Cancer Trilogy.” We talked about the most recent release, Ain’t Dead Yet, due in late May, as well as his second birthday memories, The White Stripes, The Longhorn Ballroom, Dan Fogelberg's “Same Old Lang Syne,” and his desire to create when he was ill. I’m very happy that Joshua is cancer-free, and super psyched that he joined me here for a great conversation. Listen and subscribe!
