Butch Walker feels the weight of fire

Butch Walker knows a little something about trial by fire. The singer/guitarist titled his fourth solo album, Sycamore Meadows, after the street he lived on in Malibu before his home was burned to the ground by California wildfires in November. He lost all his possessions, plus every master he has recorded, including many compiled as a songwriter and producer for such acts as Pink, Katy Perry, Fall Out Boy and Pete Yorn. Several tunes on the album, out Nov. 11, address the fire and its aftermath. In the video for Ships in a Bottle, he walks through the ashes where his house stood. Fans can hear demos at myspace.com/butchwalker and download first single The Weight of Her for free at amazon.com.
