- **Event Name**: Andrew Butt Trio + "Blame It On My Youth" - Celebrating Song Writers Of The 1970's
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 08 May, 2026 at 08:30 am (+10:00)
- **Event Description**: Blame It on My Youth is a deeply personal concert project from Andrew Butt, celebrating the great songwriters of the 1970s, the music that shaped his musical voice.

The performance places a particular focus on the master writers of the late twentieth century, including Joni Mitchell, Enrico Morricone, Don Walker and Johny Mercer, alongside Andrew’s own Queensland Music Award winning original compositions.

Rather than simple reinterpretations, these songs are reimagined through a contemporary jazz lens that is lyrical, spacious and driven by improvisation, drawing connections between folk, cinematic writing, rock and jazz. The result is reflective and atmospheric, blending nostalgia with fresh creative exploration.

Andrew has been prominent on the Australian Music scene for over 30 years, being a multiple winner of the Queensland Music Awards. Other accolades include a Churchill Fellowship and performing as a jazz soloist with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra. He leads Andrew Butt Trio +, an ensemble that has been regularly featured on radio, major venues and festivals across the world including the Wangaratta Festival of Jazz, the Brisbane International Jazz Festival, Le Baiser Salé Paris, iF Jazz Café Budapest, U Malého Glena Jazz Club Prague, Sunset – Sunside Paris, Tanks Arts Centre Cairns, Bennetts Lane Jazz Club and the Paris Cat Jazz Club Melbourne.
