John Butler Trio Tickets Continued
The John Butler Trio won an ARIA award for "Best Independent Release" for
Three in 2001 and has been nominated for three others. Three was released
in the U.S. in 2002 and the John Butler Trio toured the U.S. in that year
supporting the Dave Matthews Band and John Mayer.
The title Sunrise Over Sea is probably a reference to his home in
Byron Bay which is the most easterly point in Australia and therefore one
of the first points to see the sunrise (as opposed to his native Western
Australia where the sun rises over land and sets over the sea). The single "Zebra" from this album was released in December 2003 and made the ARIA
singles charts in early 2004. It was number 7 in the Triple J Hottest
100, 2004 and also had significant airplay on commercial FM radio across
Australia. John Butler won an Australasian Performing Rights Association
award for Song of the Year in March 2004.
Following the Boxing Day Tsunami, the John Butler Trio appeared at the
Wave Aid fundraising concert in Sydney, to raise funds for aid
organisations working in disaster affected areas.
