“The album is a deeply personal exploration for Walker filled with bright, acoustic-driven tunes.” – Esquire

“Bed on Fire” is a sulky meditation on groundhog day love where he revels in a scorching solo, swelling strings, and Walker comes off sounding just the right amount of tortured.” – VICE’s Noisey

Butch Walker‘s highly anticipated seventh full-length album Afraid Of Ghosts, will be released February 3 via Dangerbird Records. The production was helmed by Ryan Adams at his PAX AM Studios in LA along with friends & special guests, including Bob Mould and Johnny Depp. With gritty hints of folk, pop and rock, Afraid Of Ghosts weaves a journey through life, love, death and everything in between.

Throughout his career, Butch Walker has always inspired with his infectious yet never over-bearing sense of melody, across the boundaries of genre. Having previously revealed pared-down title track “Afraid of Ghosts” and then “21+ “ (featuring Johnny Depp on guitar), Walker today delves into the heavier, sultry rock of “Bed On Fire.”

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. Walker recently wrapped a US tour supporting Ryan Adams with four triumphant sold-out shows at Carnegie Hall and Hammerstein Ballroom in New York.
