A MUSICIAN from Billericay spoke on Basildon Hospital Radio of his upcoming album, which will raise money for cancer research.
Kev Walker, frontman of The Kev Walker Band, appeared in an interview with Frank Toohey on May 29.
Listeners heard the story of Mr Walker's musical journey from the start up until the forthcoming launch of his band's latest album Biding My Time.
During the interview, he said: "Many families have been hit by cancer, mine included.
"The words of the dozen songs on the album obviously have a special meaning for me – and hopefully to others.
"In my own special way, I'm trying to give something back to both Cancer Research UK and Macmillan Cancer Support, which have truly helped my family over the last dozen years and which I hope will benefit from sales of my album when it is released."
His band's album will be launched on July 29 and he will be performing at The Basildon Towngate Theatre on August 10 at 7.30pm.
Tickets cost £7.50 and proceeds go towards The Macmillan Nurses Trust Essex and Cancer Research UK.
