Welcome to Episode 1 of The Neon Eon. We kick off the podcast being joined by country music star Clay Walker. During this episode, we talk about Walker's early roots and rise out of the blossoming Beaumont/East Texas scene in the late '80s, signing on to Giant Records, being a young writer, finding his lane, and hear some of the stories behind some of Walker's biggest hits such as "Live Until I Die," "Dreaming with My Eyes Wide Open," "This Woman and This Man," "Live, Laugh, Love," and "The Chain of Love."
