The JOHN BUTLER TRIO present...
‘LIVE AT RED ROCKS’ - their first live CD & DVD release in five years!
The John Butler Trio, are considered one of the most respected and successful bands on the global music scene and now their cherished worldwide fans can enjoy an awe-inspiring live performance from the band with the release of ‘LIVE AT RED ROCKS’ a combo CD and DVD box set available from July 22nd 2011.

Over the years, JBT have been fortunate enough to open shows for several international artists at the incredible Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. In June last year, John and his band mates Nicky Bomba and Byron Luiters were elated to perform their biggest headlining concert to date with 8,000 adoring fans at this remarkably iconic and internationally renowned venue in what was a mind blowing concert event.

This spectacular 2 ½ hour show was captured in its entirety and is now presented in a stunning 2 CD/DVD package. The DVD features footage of the moving performance from traditional Native American Dances, behind the scenes interviews as well as the official video clip for ‘Revolution’, which happened to be the number one voted video on ABC TV’s Rage program last year.

The set list from ‘LIVE AT RED ROCKS’ features 20 songs spanning JBT’s entire repertoire including choice cuts from the band’s worldwide critically-acclaimed albums. The highlight tracks being crowd favourites Ocean, Better Than, Funky Tonight, Close to You and Zebra.

Reflecting on the Red Rocks concert experience John Butler said today,

"We’ve opened up for so many artists at Red Rocks over the years and to headline this sublimely majestic and sacred venue was a massive milestone for us. As an Australian band, it's hard to explain what it feels like to pull off a gig like this, we played hard and fast, like our lives depended on it. We gave it everything we had and everything this special place and its people deserved.”
