John Butler has has decided to get himself a new band in his ever evolving line-up for “artistic reasons”, leaving drummer Michael Barker and bass player Shannon Birchall behind. Barker and Birchall have been with Butler for six years.
As of yet there is no word of their replacements, but Butler says: ““Michael and Shannon have been by far the best line up I have performed with in The John Butler Trio to date. They have been a pleasure to live, love, learn, record and tour with. Their professionalism, musicianship, and commitment have been unwavering and for that and a whole lot more I am truly thankful.”
Fans of this current line-up have four chances left to see them in action. Check ‘em out at:
