Modern Drummer magazine: Wally Ingram - Back With a Little Help from His Friends - by Dave Stanoch What a difference a year can make. In January 2007, Wally Ingram was finishing up brutal chemotherapy and radiation treatments, battling for his life against the Squamous Cell Cancer that had invaded his throat and neck. At the end of that month, while awaiting the results of his treatment, he was able to participate in a star-studded benefit concert in his honor, organized by Uber-producer/drummer Butch Vig and Bonnie Raitt, that featured Butch’s band Garbage, Bonnie, Sheryl Crow, Jackson Browne, Keb’ Mo’, Crowded House, George Clinton, and many others, in Glendale, California. “It was a powerful night,” Wally reflects, “the incentive to be there and play got me through some really tough days. The event itself was magical. The outpouring of love from the artists and the audience was overwhelming. It put wind in my sails to fight on.” In June, Wally learned that he is cancer-free with a clean bill of health. Click rere to read the rest of the article...

Dear Family, Wally had an MRI 2 weeks ago and had a meeting with the surgeon who said it was clean. No signs of cancer and there would be no need for surgery at this time. Wally goes back in 3 months for a PET/CT scan. The next day we saw the oncologist who gave him the report of being in complete remission and cancer free status!!! Click here for all of the details... We have lots of cool stuff going on here at Team Wally! We will be holding benefit concerts, auctions, selling prayers bracelets, and coming up with lots of cool ways to help. A new Wally's World BLOG has been set up to field all of the e-mails and amazing outpouring of response from friends & fans.

In the recording department....Wally Ingram just wrapped up a recent session with Glen Hartman from the one & only bayou legends, The New Orleans Klezmer Allstars. The title of the new World Music release is planned to be "World According to Glen Hartman & Wally Ingram" and we hope to have it released by the end of the year. The New Orleans Klezmer All-Stars (NOKAS) have carried on with their own interpretation of the klezmer tradition since 1991. New Orleans, where arcane cultural borrowing is normal, seems to be a natural home for a music that has always blended diverse styles. Yet, "when we first started playing this music, people had no idea what it was (many still don't)," explains Arthur Kastler, the band's original bass player, "They would stand there with their jaws open.... But right away, they danced." For more info on Glen Hartman & the New Orleans Klezmer Allstars, click here! |
