Here’s “Fathers Day”:

It’s a new year… i’ve been wanting you to hear this new song i wrote.. i started writing a song after Big Butch passed away a year ago.. i just couldn’t finish it without losing my words. my buddy Ryan Adams helped me really focus and finish the thoughts. needless to say, i think it might be the closest i have ever been to one of my songs (for obvious reasons). this one goes out to my Son AND my Dad – Butch.

Butch Walker album Afraid of Ghosts, on LojinxButch Walker‘s highly anticipated seventh full-length album Afraid Of Ghosts, produced by Ryan Adams, will be released on CD, LP & digital on 2nd February via Lojinx in Europe.

Following the understated infectiousness of 21+ and title track Afraid of Ghosts, Butch delved into deeper and grittier territory with his sultry single “Bed On Fire,” recently shared online. Now, he unleashes the song’s spellbinding visual companion, filmed in Joshua Tree, California, and directed by Magdalena Wosinska and Snake. Their “Bed On Fire” mini-film has a woozy, dreamlike feel whose narrative staggers from biker gangs in sprawling desert vistas to corpse-painted attackers at a party. The visual metaphors serve to transform the track from siren song to murder ballad, albeit one in which the corpse-bride exacts her bloody revenge. This cinematic, warped Western that stars three generations of Walker men – Butch, his father “Big Butch” (snapshot in the truck), and his son Jamie Blue – is not to be missed.

Butch said of the video, “It’s a wild ride so buckle up. Hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it. Enjoy the madness.”

Afraid of Ghosts was produced by recent fellow GRAMMY nominee Ryan Adams at his PAX AM Studios in LA along with friends & special guests including Bob Mould and Johnny Depp. The album is available to preorder now and iTunes includes 4 instant-grat tracks. With his remarkably diverse resume that includes everything from guitar god to GRAMMY and CMA nominated producer, Walker’s new LP shows both skill and tenderness.

7 inches of vinyl pleasure… Get your minds out of the gutter, y’all. Today we are excited to announce the 7″ vinyl release of the song “Chrissie Hynde”. There’s also a bonus B-side of an unreleased track I wrote called “Growing Up (Don’t Let Me Down). Excited? Well you damn well should be because we are only makin’ 1000 of these puppies and the first 250 bought from my webstore will be signed autographed copies (by me. Sorry. Chrissie couldn’t sign them in time, so they won’t be worth as much on eBay. But still…) Alright. You know what to do. Click all this shit right here to make your vinyl pleasures come true – Butch
