Description
"After a brief taste of major-label success with his former band Marvelous 3 during the late '90s, Butch Walker traded his bandmates for a solo career and made his second bid for rock & roll success in the early 2000s, doing a lot of production work on the side.The singer/songwriter/guitarist/producer's three-album run with Marvelous 3 peaked in 1998 when the song "Freak of the Week" became a sizable hit. However, the band didn't last long, recording only two albums for Elektra before Walker grew frustrated with the label. He broke up his band and spent a year producing albums for such bands as Injected and SR-71. This production work increased his reputation within the industry, and he quickly signed a solo contract with Arista."
