Ward Richmond on Big Addict Energy, Recovery, and the Music of East Dallas

Camille and Rich sit down with one of their all time favorite hometown voices, Ward Richmond, a musician, dad, real estate broker, podcast host, and proud East Dallas native. Ward grew up sneaking into Reverend Horton Heat and Tripping Daisy shows, eventually becoming a staple of the Dallas music scene with bands like Slick 57 and Boys Named Sue. Today, he brings raw honesty and Texas storytelling to his solo work including his upcoming third album Big Addict Energy produced by John Pedigo.

In this conversation Ward opens up about addiction, recovery, and finding peace through music, yoga, meditation, and fatherhood. He talks about the inspiration behind his songs, the friends and collaborators who shaped his journey, and why his Dallas roots will always be at the center of his story.

This episode is about more than music. It is about resilience, community, and the power of truth.
