Joshua Ray Walker

Joshua Ray Walker has set an ambitious weight loss goal for himself in 2026.

Joshua Ray Walker wrote the songs on his new album after doctors told him he was probably going to die.

Walker's best songs are full of storytelling, heart and a well-placed yodel flourish.

He's beaten very long odds!

"Breathing hurts. Coughing hurts. But I'm here, I'm awake, I'm alive, I made it through the surgery and now we wait for the results."

The singer and songwriter has set up a GoFundMe to cover living costs and out-of-pocket health expenses as he fights his way back to good health.

A sense of gratitude pervades his message to fans, in which he admits that 2023 was a "brutal" year, health-wise.
