John Butler Trio - Grand National Album Cover

Song #6 John Butler Trio’s Funky Tonight

Why I Picked It: I had no idea what to pick today, so I randomly played my music until I found something – John Butler Trio and their Funky Tonight song from their Grand National album.  John Butler Trio is an Australian-based band that I learned about from my friend Cela.  Cela had spent sometime studying abroad in Austrailia and when she came back they were playing at – of all places – the Borders bookstore on Hollywood/Vine.  They proceeded to absolutely floor me with their musicality, especially John Butler’s guitar playing.
