Secondvideo




 This video of John Butler's Trio-Ocean is a song that nearly gives the audience goosebumps when he is performing it live. His music consits of tone that makes the audience be part of the music world with him. He is just playing a guitar throughout yet it sounds like two guitars being played with a drum. We may think that it is because of his famous 12 string guitar, but that is not it. His passion towards his performance adds up to it.  Music in general includes major themes and the beat/ rhythm, composition, harmony are just few of them. And Butler has accomplished to use all of these in a unique manner, or at least compared to other well known artists (composers and musicians). Butler not only plays the strings of the guitar, but he also plays the the surface of the guitar like an instrument, which adds up to his skills of guitar. In this modern world, youngsters are usually more interested in music and they are always ready for something new to come and John's guitar piece is different and it involves the audience. And the tone of his guitar is also very soothing which makes depressed people come out of their depression.
