Butch Walker "Ludlow Expectations" | Reverb Song Stories

From 90s power pop hit maker Marvelous 3 to producer and songwriter for mega stars like Fall Out Boy, Taylor Swift, and Weezer, Butch Walker has worn many hats in his two-plus decades in the music Industry. But in his own music, you’ll find that he has a lot more in common with the artists that he grew up listening to. In this installment of Song Stories, Walker talks about his process, how a producer’s role has changed, and how he drew inspiration from mid-80s era Petty, Mellencamp, and the Boss when making his new record, Stay Gold.

If you listen to "Stay Gold" album, in the album order, you hear a 30 minute love story. It is amazing.

Not sure if you know, but there's a professionally shot video of an entire Butch gig from this new tour up on RUclips (including Ludlow, of course). Do a search for "Butch Walker Live The Tabernacle GA" and you can catch the 2 hour show.

Springsteen, Petty, Melloncamp? I'm hearing Billy Joel.

[@randyworley7047]

thescowlingschnauzer I've always thought exactly the same thing listening to this album. Very much Springsteen influence.

[@randyworley7047]

I hear a little bit of Billy Joel, but I do hear mostly Springsteen and Petty influences in the song
