Ethan Butler Music

Born and raised on the west side of Chicago, Ethan Butler does not produce your typical Westside, church-raised tunes. He started playing guitar at the age of 13 and quickly began write. And although Ethan has been writing and playing for years, he has only recently begun the journey of a professional career as a singer/songwriter. But don't let his freshness to the scene detour your interest. Drawing inspirations from MJ to Coldplay and JT to John Williams, Ethan describes himself as a "center city artist." Layering light undertones of jazz, alternative, folk, and R&B with acoustic pop, Ethan whets the palette of his audience by giving them an eclectic listening experience. But instead of coming across as a "lost" artist, Ethan skillfully incorporates a variety of styles while maintaining a sound that is distinctly "Ethan Butler." Ethan is currently doing shows with just his voice, his guitar, and his heart. His giftedness on the guitar matched with his powerhouse vocals and the sincerity of his lyrics will usher you into his story. His voice is smooth and rich with conviction as he vocally paints the picture of each song on the canvas of your mind. He never performed covers at his shows, and he never apologizes for it. Ethan Butler is an Urban Pop Rock artist layering buttery tones with soulful pop melodies. Sounds like: Maroon 5, MJ, Bruno Mars, Gary Clark Jr.
