The singer gave an update on his battle.

Raul Malo, the frontman for popular country music group The Mavericks, announced on social media heading into July that he had been diagnosed with cancer, and now we have an update.

“This week I finished my first chemotherapy treatment,” he added. “And I have to say it went really well. No side effects, other than a scratchy throat on the first night.”“But we’re off to a good start.”“If our collective words give you as much comfort as your music has given us over the years, we are honored,” one person wrote. “Stay strong, take your time to heal, and we will be out there on the road when you are ready.

“Half the fight is in the power of your mind!!” another wrote. “With access to all your platforms & loyal fans prayers, you GOT THIS!”“In the last couple of years, we out here on the road, we have been on a health kick,” he said. “Treating ourselves a little better. Taking care out ourselves a little better, and really trying to do all the right things as far as nutrition, etc. So, part of the health journey is to get yourself checked out. Go to a doctor, take a physical and start there.
