A star "Down Undah" and already tremendously popular in France, guitarist and singer-songwriter John Butler began his rise into the indie-folk-roots firmament right here in North America. A committed ecologist and stunning guitarist, Butler self-produces his albums on his own Jarrah Records. In his first visit to the Festival, last summer, he performed solo and in a duo. This time, the versatile Aussie performs in a trio-with Nicky Bomba on percussions and Byron Luiters on bass-and presents songs from his highly anticipated 2010 album, April Uprising.
