BUTCH WALKER
butchwalker.com
Regular touring favorite Butch Walker returns to the road, including a stop this week at Minneapolis’ Varsity Theater. The native Georgian is still riding high from the release of his last full-length with band the Black Widows, 2011’s The Spade (Dangerbird Records) and has just released a digital ep, Peachtree Battle (Dangerbird Records). Though he’s made more of a name recently songwriting and producing for other acts (Avril LaVigne, Fall Out Boy, Pink among others), his own music is a roots rock breath of fresh air and expect a sampling from all facets of his career, including previous band Marvelous 3’s hit single “Freak of the Week”, though you might want to brush up on those lyrics yourself, in case you’re called up on stage to help vocalize.
Opening for Walker is new Nashville-based singer-songwriter Marc Scibilia, who has recently released his third EP, The Shape I’m In (Hickory Records/Sony/ATV). After touring stints with Ben Rector, Sixpence the Richer, and The Neighbors, Scibilia has garnered a core audience, had songs featured in TV series like Bones, and a growing following for his honest lyrics and heartfelt melodies. Arrive early to catch this up-and-comer so you can say you saw him ‘when’.
