Butch Walker Week: Day 2

11/04/2008
. (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!

Closer to the Truth (Further from the Sky): this one I recorded as this big, grandiose, sort of "Born to Run" anthem, complete with the horn section from the Kimmel show.

My motorcycle buddy Cleto is the band leader and saxophonist for the show. It came out really good, but I thought once I put drums on it, it sort of cheesed it out too much and made it too pinpointed. I just muted them and left everything else in and it is the weirdest song ever now. I love the lyrics. It's a true story. I know, you don't believe me...
