My Love Affair with Butch Walker


My love affair with Butch Walker began 10 long years ago. We've had our good times and bad. We've been through the days of Marvelous 3 & then going solo. Then there were the SAPPS (don't ask, but let's just say they were the obnoxious girls at the shows). He gave me more jaded love ballads than one girl needs but damn can that man write a song! If he is nothing else, he is honest.

If it weren't for Butch, I wouldn't know my husband. How's that for music touching your life? If I never heard his music I never would've met my "sistahs." It was through one of my "sistahs" that I started listening to another band. And it was through that band that I met Josh. Josh & I even danced to one of Butch's songs as our first song at our wedding. The song was Don't Move in case you're wondering.
I was really excited to get his newest album today (it came out last week). Sycamore Meadows is a blend of the classic Butch I fell in love with & the newer Butch I'm learning to love.
