Butch Walker tries to 'Stay Gold,' on the road soon

Grammy nominated singer/guitarist and producer Butch Walker will release his eighth studio album Stay Gold on Aug. 26 via Dangerbird Records. He has co-written tracks with acts like Frank Turner, Brian Fallon, Taylor Swift and many more. 

The new song "Descending" is a duet with Grammy nominated country singer Ashley Monroe - LISTEN HERE

Walker's last album, 2015’s Ryan Adams-produced Afraid Of Ghosts, was a cathartic record that dealt with a devastating personal experience, the passing of his father. This one’s a celebration. The stories on Stay Gold are very well fleshed out, something Butch credits to “growing up on some of those dudes - Elton John and the (Bernie) Taupin lyrics, Springsteen and Joel."

Lead single "East Coast Girl" and "Mexican Coke" were inspired by Walker's move to Los Angeles. To listen to the album's title track - CLICK HERE
 
When asked if the songs' stories are real or imagined, he replies, “All the songs are half true.” The album is now available for pre-order with "East Coast Girl" and title track "Stay Gold" as an instant grat download. In addition, Walker will embark on a North American tour, tickets on sale now.
