“Only One is one of those 'turn around" songs. The idea of a Zombie love story came to me a while ago. I wanted the song and video almost to be juxtaposed but still somehow have an element of love….and humour. I think we made a seriously cool and funny video. I love it. Even if I do look dead!” - JOHN BUTLER
‘Only One’, available now through iTunes, presents a fresh take on JBT’s signature sound. Cascading acoustic riffs flow effortlessly over driving rhythms while sun kissed steel drums and an inspirational melody and lyric delivers a quality summer soundtrack.
And for those who may have missed the recent news of the trio welcoming new drummer, percussionist and backing vocalist Grant Gerathy to the fold, he’s well and truly cut the mustard on the recent live tour with fans expressing their delight with his incredible stick work!
