Butch Walker Week: Day 1

11/03/2008
. (antiMusic) Long before he became the ubber producer of multiplatinum albums, Butch Walker was a critically acclaimed artist of his own right. First as the frontman for Marvelous 3 and then later as a solo artists. While he is one of the most in demand producers in today's rock world, Butch still finds the time to pursue his own musical career and next week his new album 'Sycamore Meadows,' hits stores. to celebrate this release we asked Butch if he could tell us about some of his favorite tracks from the effort. Here is Butch with today's song!

The Weight of Her: The last song written for the record and recorded. It was all done in my little bedroom. Flew Darren out and he cut the drums and I finished the track without all the words. Finished the words the next day and boom bang bing... Done.

I thought it was the right song to set the tone of my record, without being a forced, sappy, "my house burned down" kickoff of a song. There's plenty of those on the record. This one is just the truth about girls.
