John Butler took it one step at a time, from street performer to Australian sensation to global roots-rock phenomenon. The Trio’s music is an eclectic mix of rock, roots and funk held together tightly by hip-hop rhythms and made lyrical by a jam-band sensibility. The most recent album, April Uprising, finds Butler trading his finger-plucked guitar stylings for more rocking riffs while maintaining the funk grooves and roots vibrations that have made John Butler Trio living live-act legends. “Melody, subtlety, authenticity… Butler at his brand-new best, blending his influences into a sound that is all his own. A hip-shaking, rollicking good-time…” – Rolling Stone.
