JOHN BUTLER TRIO

Performing live in Auckland & Wellington in May

Revered for their brilliant live performances and superb musicianship, one of Australia’s most esteemed bands, the John Butler Trio return to New Zealand in celebration of their 5^th studio album ‘April Uprising’.

Playing Auckland’s Powerstation on May 6 and Wellington’s Frontroom on May 7, fans will experience an awe-inspiring two hour-plus show as the John Butler Trio captivate the audience with their latest tracks such as ‘Revolution’, ‘One Way Road’ and ‘Close To You’, as well as a good dose of all time crowd favourites from the JBT’s vast catalogue.

Over the past twelve months John Butler and his new trio members, Nicky Bomba on drums/percussion and Byron Luiters on bass, celebrated the release of ‘April Uprising’ with fans as they conducted a gruelling tour schedule taking the band to new heights. As they simultaneously released the album in 11 countries and progressively toured each territory, they garnered incredible respect and rave reviews from fans and media along the way and are considered as one of Australia’s biggest music exports.

‘April Uprising’ combines the personal, the political and the musically memorable delivered in the live arena with skill, passion and precision from three adept musicians who’ve created an incredible bond.

The John Butler Trio are ready to tune into their Kiwi fans and fans-to-be – don’t miss this rare opportunity to witness what is guaranteed to be an impressive performance from one of Australia’s finest groups.
