Abstract

This article focuses on Bernard Butler’s ongoing musical collaboration with Scottish songwriters Norman Blake and James Grant in their folk rock supergroup Butler, Blake & Grant. The group’s second album, *Murmurs*, features reinterpretations of each other’s songs alongside a cover of The Monkees’ "Me & Magdalena," reflecting their shared Celtic and folk influences. Butler’s connections to Scottish musicians and his history as a producer and guitarist are highlighted, including his work with artists such as Duffy and Jessie Buckley. The article also touches on Butler’s current solo projects and his approach to evolving creatively rather than revisiting past successes. [Extracted from the article]
