Life time
One of the songs on the album, “Wings Are Wide”, was written as a dedication to his grandmother, who gave Butler his grandfather’s Dobro guitar that became the foundation for his songwriting. Butler admitted that “I wasn’t at all into roots music or playing the slide or anything when I got it, and it sat under my bed for a long, long time.” Released in Australia on 8 February 2014, Flesh and Blood was produced by Jan Skubiszewski and features a vocal duet with Ainslie Wills.
Butler is against Coal Seam Gas (CSG) and gave a free supporting concert at the Bentley protesting the Northern Rivers of New South Wales, Australia, on 20 April 2014.
On 21 October, Butler featured on SBS Television’s documentary called Destination Australia – Bridge Between Two Worlds performing to refugee children in a class at Perth’s Highgate Primary School. Butler’s discovery of his Bulgarian ancestor’s involvement in the April Uprising provided the title for the trio’s next No. 1 album, April Uprising, issued in March 2010. Butler performed “How to Make Gravy” and the Kev Carmody/Paul Kelly song “From Little Things Big Things Grow” (with Carmody, Kelly, Missy Higgins and Dan Sultan) at the Kelly tribute concerts staged by Triple J in mid-November 2009, which was released as the 2010 live album Before Too Long.
The early sessions for the John Butler Trio’s sixth studio album commenced in mid-2013, following the band’s largest tour of the US. For the first time in the band’s lifetime, the members began with a blank songwriting slate, rather than using the initial ideas of Butler that had been introduced. Butler gathered with Luiters and Bomba at The Compound in Fremantle, Western Australia, which serves as the band’s headquarters and the frontman’s artistic space, and co-wrote material for the first time, deviating from the Butler-centric process of the past: “I had always brought the material.” After contributing a large portion of work towards the album, Bomba eventually left the Compound space to work on his Melbourne Ska Orchestra project and was replaced by Grant Gerathy.
Butler performed at another concert in support of the Kimberley cause on 24 February 2013, with Missy Higgins also appearing again, with the event held at The Esplanade in Fremantle, Western Australia. Jarrah Records, the record label that Butler co-founded with The Waifs and Phil Stevens, worked in partnership with The Wilderness Society to stage the free event that also featured the band Ball Park Music and Bob Brown, former leader of the Australian Greens. A march to protest the proposed gas refinery construction at James Price Point accompanied the free concert and campaign supporters were photographed with banners and placards.
In response to the proposed dumping of around 3,000,000 cubic metres (110,000,000 cu ft) of dredged seabed onto the Great Barrier Reef, a legal fighting team was formed by World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF)-Australia and the Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS) in late 2013/early 2014. The legal team received further support in April 2014, following the release of the “Sounds for the Reef” musical fundraising project. Produced by Straightup, the digital album features Butler, in addition to artists such as The Herd, Sietta, Missy Higgins, The Cat Empire, Fat Freddys Drop, The Bamboos (featuring Kylie Auldist) and Resin Dogs. Released on 7 April, the album’s 21 songs were sold on the Bandcamp website.
Butler is one of the largest supporters of the “Save The Kimberley” campaign in Australia and performed at the Save the Kimberley concert in Melbourne, Australia’s Federation Square in October 2012. On 4 October 2012, Butler was joined by 150 people during a protest outside the BHP Billiton headquarters in Melbourne; the protest was in response to the corporation’s involvement with a proposed James Price Point gas industrial complex in Western Australia’s Kimberley region.
On 19 February 2011, Butler performed for the first time with his wife Danielle, also known as Mama Kin, under the moniker Brave and the Bird, at the Gimme Shelter event (an annual fundraiser for the homeless) held at the Fremantle Arts Centre.
“Ocean” garnered John Butler newfound success when recordings of live performances of the song went viral on the internet. Butler made a cameo appearance in 2009 Australian film, In Her Skin, as a busker. The film’s soundtrack featured three songs by the John Butler Trio, “Ocean”, “Caroline” and “What You Want”.
In July 2009, Butler undertook a solo overseas tour commencing in North America, where he played at the Montreal Jazz Festival, the Rothbury Music Festival in Michigan and The Mile High Music Festival in Denver. In North America he sold out headline shows in Toronto and Los Angeles. In Europe, Butler played at the Folies Bergère in Paris and London’s Union Chapel. He also performed at Cannes, Amsterdam and Antwerp.
On 29 June, Butler gave a live solo performance at Twist and Shout Records in Denver, Colorado, which was released in January 2008 as an eight-track EP, One Small Step, with A$1 from each record sold being donated to Oxfam’s “Close the Gap” campaign. One Small Step was Butler’s first official solo release. At the ARIA Music Awards of 2007, Butler performed “Funky Tonight” in a collaboration with fellow Australian musician Keith Urban. Radio station, Triple J’s listeners voted Grand National their favourite album for 2007.
After wearing dreadlocks for 13 years, Butler cut them off in early 2008. In an interview with the Herald Sun newspaper in 2008, Butler acknowledged that he had been referred to as the “million dollar hippie” in various articles and around his hometown in Australia. The nickname refers to his inclusion on the Business Review Weekly list of the 50 richest entertainers in 2004, with reported earnings of A$2.4 million.
In September 2006, John Butler Trio released a promotional studio diary of the recording progress of their next album, Grand National, which was released in March 2007 and peaked at No. 1. In December 2006, Funky Tonight (EP) was released and included tracks from their live shows, such as “Daniella”, “Fire in the Sky”, and “Funky Tonight”. The band performed at the Melbourne entertainment hub, Federation Square at Easter 2007. The one off performance featured musicians who had collaborated on Grand National, including Vika and Linda Bull, Jex Saarhelart and Nicky Bomba. The performance was telecast on JTV and was released on DVD in November.
In 2005, Butler and Caruana co-founded the JB Seed grant program – renamed as The Seed in 2010 – to support artistic expression and encourage the “social, cultural and artistic diversity in Australian society”. The couple contributed $80,000 to establish the project. Other supporters include Paul Kelly, Correne Wilkie (Manager, The Cat Empire), Paul and Michelle Gilding (Ecoscorp), Maureen Ritchie, Missy Higgins, John Watson (Eleven Music), John Woodruff (JWM Productions), Sebastian Chase (MGM Distribution), Philip Stevens (Jarrah Records), The Waifs and Blue King Brown.

It was selected as ‘Song of the Year’ at the 2004 APRA Awards. The album, Sunrise Over Sea, was released in March 2004 and peaked at No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart. It was the first independently released and distributed album to debut at No. 1 and Butler received the ARIA ‘Best Male Artist’ award that same year.
Butler grew up in the US and moved to Australia at an early age. He began playing the guitar at the age of sixteen. In 2002, Butler, along with several partners, formed their own record label. He is also the co-founder of a grant program that seeks to improve artistic diversity in his home country, Australia, where he resides with his wife and children.
In July 2002, Jarrah Records was created by Butler, members of fellow Western Australian act The Waifs and their common manager, Stevens. Being a partner in a record label allowed Butler to maximise artistic control of his recordings.
The band’s second album, Three, was produced by Butler and Shaun O’Callaghan. It was released and distributed on Waterfront Records in April 2001. It featured the tracks “Take” and “Betterman”, which both received radio airplay on the Australian alternative youth radio station Triple J and rated in its annual Top 100.
