Butch Walker performs at The Disc Exchange

Singer-songwriter Butch Walker returned to Knoxville for the first time in about 10 years.

Walker, known for producing music for Katy Perry, Pink and Weezer, is on tour with Train and will be performing to a sold-out crowd Saturday night at the Tennessee Theatre with his latest band, Butch Walker and the Black Widows.

The Atlanta native was the front-man for power-pop trio, Marvelous 3 in the late '90s, before launching a solo career in the early 2000s.

Walker and bandmate Fran Capitanelli played an in-store set for about 50 fans Saturday afternoon at The Disc Exchange.

On tour with Train until mid-April, Walker and his band will head to Europe to tour with Pink this summer.
