Still Searching marks a new chapter for John Butler, known for his intricate guitar work and genre-defying style. This instrumental album, recorded in 2023 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, takes Butler back to his roots with powerful, acoustic-driven tracks that capture his distinct connection to his instruments and musical storytelling. Still Searching explores a variety of guitar styles and tunings that blend elements of folk, blues, and ambient soundscapes, creating an album as exploratory as its name suggests.

To celebrate the album's release, Butler will be performing Still Searching in Australia’s finest intimate venues, reuniting with former band member Michael Barker on percussion for the first time since 2009. This rare tour promises to bring Butler’s full musical intensity to the stage, complete with fan favourites like “Ocean” alongside tracks from Still Searching.

Did you know? Butler’s career began with busking instrumental guitar pieces, and his new album is a return to his instrumental roots. In Still Searching, he even revisits his famed 11-string guitar, bringing back some of the techniques he developed as a street performer, allowing fans a nostalgic glimpse of his early artistic journey.
