Read excerpt
In the fall of 2023, eclectic Texas honky tonker Joshua Ray Walkerâs career was ascending. He had sold out shows in Europe, was opening for a Grammy-nominated rock band, and had an appearance set on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. âI was about to take off,â Walker says from his Dallas area home. âMy career was supposed to blow up.â Instead, his appendix burst in Reno where he was opening for The Killers, and that led to a colon cancer diagnosis â as well as a terrific (and humorously titled) liv

Musical acts at venues in Santa Fe, Taos, and Albuquerque brings sounds spanning genres from hip-hop and punk to bluegrass, blues, and Americana. Some bands like to stick to the studio and record.
