PT Walkley's Mr. Macy Wakes Alone

Opening for Coldplay is not an easy feat to do, but PT Walkley's debut solo album Mr. Macy Wakes Alone reveals the songwriter's treasure chest of solid storytelling and memorable characters. With 18 tracks, there's an actual storyline from beginning to end.

Listeners are privy to the lives of Audrey Macy, a trust fund kid who poisons her father, and Calvin the Crooner. It's partly whimsical, quirky and folksy, but always engaging. I enjoyed "Audrey Macy,", "Daydreaming," "The Lucky Ones," and "Somebody."

The album debuts today. Check it out at ptwalkley.com, www.myspace.com/ptwalkley or listen here: http://ptwalkley.com/song-book
