What happened to the other Walker Brothers?
The Walker Brothers were a Los Angeles-formed group who found major success in Britain, though the three members were not related. Scott Walker went on to build a distinctive solo career, while Gary and John Walker continued making music after the group’s break-up but achieved less public success.
The group reunited to tour Japan in 1968 and again in 1975, scoring a final top ten hit with “No Regrets” before releasing *Nite Flights* in 1978. Gary formed Gary Walker and The Rain, whose only album came out in 1968, and later released solo singles. John pursued solo records and touring, moved to California and worked as a technical consultant and songwriter; he and Gary published a joint autobiography in 2009. The article says Gary died aged 83 in March 2026 after a stroke the previous December.
In short
- The Walker Brothers were a band, not actual brothers.
