Butch Walker Week: Day 3
11/05/2008
.
(antiMusic) Long before he became the ubber producer of multiplatinum albums, Butch Walker was a critically acclaimed artist in 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!Passed Your Place, Saw Your Car, Thought of You: this song came to me really quick lyrically, and then I had no idea how to record it. I still hate the recorded version, but it's because I never know for sure how to do a song like this. It is a very vulnerable lyric and I don't know sometimes how to let that show through without just doing the stick-a-mic-in-front-of-me-and-a-guitar and just sing it. I know a lot of people like when I only do that, but I gotta tell ya, I can't stand to hear a whole record of that. I do like it on the Rhodes piano though. And the drum machine is just a s***ty Casio sampling keyboard with built in speakers. It is set to the "rock ballad" drum beat. Go figure.
