About

JONATHAN BUTLER IN CONCERT:


Singer-songwriter Jonathan Butler became an apartheid hero in the ‘70s when his teenage debut single became the first song by a black artist to receive airplay on white radio stations in his native South Africa. Nearly 40 years later, he remains an enduring icon of positive social change through music, gracing audiences with his uplifting voice on inspiring performances of his early South African music and later classics like “Lies.” At his 2013 dates, Butler was joined on stage by his daughter, whose continued presence on tour as a backing singer ensures more spiritually satisfying shows in 2014.


BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:


Born in apartheid-era Cape Town, the precocious young Butler showed musical promise from an early age, beginning to tour at just age seven before going on to achieve success as a teen recording idol. After a stint with South African jazz-rock legends Pacific Express, Butler signed to Jive records, relocating to the UK to continue writing and recording. He achieved his biggest international success in 1987 with “Lies,” a Grammy-nominated hit that landed at No. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. Over the course of his decade-spanning career, Butler has released more than 20 albums, exploring a broad range of styles including jazz, pop, and gospel. Following the release of a Christmas album in 2013, Butler is once again the road for a string of highly anticipated North American dates.


FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:


“Jonathan Butler feels every note he plays and sings, this was quite an evening with great music.”


“Musician, singer, songwriter Jonathan Butler provides a solid evening of entertainment featuring songs he has written, many made famous by other stars, but superbly covered by this great artist. His musicianship is stellar and his voice always a delight.”


“If Jonathan Butler ever comes close to your location, you must go. These days his daughter, Jody Butler, is performing with him. She's an unexpected treat.”

  • EXCELLENT CONCERT

    by Ms.DBK on 8/9/22Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre - MabletonRating: 5 out of 5

    I have always been a fan of Jonathon Butler and have said if he ever came close to where I live I would defiantly go and see him and he did not disappoint!! He is a true voice of many song styles. I loved every bit of his show!!!!!

  • Jonathan Butler performance was less than one hour.

    by Jazzy62 on 8/9/22Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre - MabletonRating: 4 out of 5

    The headline performer Jonathan Butler performed less than one hour when the other performers performed at least one hour. The weather was a little tricky , however as his guest the majority stayed just to hear him. Rain or Shine. He walked ended the concert and walked off the stage as if he was upset and that was not nice.

  • He bought the stormy weather and still showed out.Fantastic

    Great venue, staff always very helpful with any and everyone who need assistance no matter how small or large.

  • The wait time at the Venue was awful/ridiculous.

    by Red on 8/9/22Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre - MabletonRating: 5 out of 5

    The Venue didn't open timely and everything was rushed, Ken Ford was the best ever, the DJ was awesome, after the long talking from the CEO it was over, he talked too long and we missed the last artist Jonathan Butler cause of the lighting and rain.

  • Jazz Fest

    08/06/2022 My husband and I drove in from New Orleans just to hear YOU Jonathan Butler, Ken & Najee was great but Mr. BUTLER we are fans of yours!! Only if the weather would have held, I'm sure the concert would've been longer. Sooo sorry for those people who were talking while you were performing. I do pray the next time we come to see you, you will perform MORE of our favorite song. Thank God for talent!! ** Lies **After All This Time ** Do You Love Me ** Time Could Pass Many, many more...

  • Jonathan Butler... nothing but love 💘 "AFTER ALL THIS TIME"

  • Due to time restrictions the concert ended early.

    by Jeffrey Warford on 8/7/22Rating: 3 out of 5

    Nagee went a little over and we had to watch advertising video , and then listen to the sponsor for a half hour. Was disappointed we didn’t get to hear our favorite songs . No fault of his just poor time management. My wife and I come just about every weekend and support, but this was disappointing. A lot people around us Felt the same. With this being said see you Saturday for Babyface! Praying for better time management!! Loyal Fans Jeff and Sheree

  • PURE AWESOMENESS!

    by Tryl on 9/9/21Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre - MabletonRating: 5 out of 5

    I had such a great time at the concert. All three artist are so talented and I would love to see the three of them together again, over and over and over. They all had such great energy and you can see the passion in their music. The sound quality was great and the tables were nicely spaced and big enough to put all of one's food items comfortably. I am still in awe and I cannot wait to see them again and invite 100 of my friends and associates, because this was a must see, must hear experience. Free and ample parking helps as well. It only took me just a few minutes to get out to the parking lot at the end of the concert. This was my first experience at Mable House Barnes and it will not be my last.

  • Amazing

    by Jazzy62 on 9/8/21Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre - MabletonRating: 5 out of 5

    This was my first time at the Mablehouse amphitheater and I must say everyone was very nice. We were greeted at the entrance gate and throughout the venue. We had a small issue with our tickets upon arrival, however the box office handled it very quickly. The show was amazing. We wanted a little more of Jonathan Butler.

  • We traveled from Palm Coast, Florida and had the best time.

    by Ila on 9/8/21Mable House Barnes Amphitheatre - MabletonRating: 5 out of 5

    Parking was a bit of a challenge as I had a handicapped person with me, but besides that, the entire experience was wonderful. Just a little disappointed in the length of Jonathan Butler's performance...not sure why that was, but the atmosphere was incredible, the weather was God sent. Thank you for he experience.
