Huey Lewis says his battle with Ménière’s disease has left him unable to sing and perform, and it’s likely that the upcoming album from
Huey Lewis & The News,
Weather, will be his final recordings.
Ménière’s disease is an inner ear disorder that can result in vertigo, tinnitus, and ear pressure. Lewis
was diagnosed with the disease in April 2018 after losing most of his hearing during a concert in Dallas.
“I went on stage and it was horrible,” Lewis recounts in a new interview with
CBS Sunday Morning set to air this weekend. “It was just unbelievable. Couldn’t hear a thing. Sang out of tune. Had the worst night of my life.”
