John Butler Album And Tour Coming

John Butler is gearing up for the release of his new album, April Uprising, hitting stores April 6, 2010 via ATO Records and tour which kicks off in May. Throughout the album, there is a wonderful mix of personal experience, passion and political sentiment.

It's Butler's personal touch that really stands out, and fans can also experience his personable and accessible nature in the way of videos he's been rolling out on the official John Butler Trio website and YouTube Channel.

John Butler Trio's "The Making of April Uprising" is far from your typical video about the making a record. The short film was shot in and around John Butler's studio in Australia, and really highlights the Trio's animated personalities; and more than anything, it makes you want to go Down Under to hang out with them. - more on this story

Upon hearing his album debuted at #3 Gilbert enthusiastically responded, "I'm in shock. Our band and everyone in our organization can be really proud of this album." Gilbert refers to his fans as his friends because, "I consider a friend someone who supports you and cares about you. The 'fans' that come to our shows are supporting us, and if they are buying the record to get to know me, then they care. Therefore, they are friends," Gilbert continues, "and I just hope my friends get to know me a little better with this album and know how appreciative I am of their support."

Gilbert celebrated the release of his first album, A Modern Day Prodigal Son, in late 2009 after his inking with Average Joes Entertainment. Son features crowd favorites "G.R.I.T.S." and "Whenever We're Alone." Although Gilbert experienced mainstream attention with the debut, it wasn't until his cut, "The Best of Me," was recorded by Jason Aldean for his iTunes and Walmart exclusive Wide Open album that Gilbert was nationally recognized as a songwriter. - more on this story
