O’s Notes: The energetic contemporary jazz guitarist from South Africa brings us yet another dimension on Grace And Mercy, an R&B laced spiritual CD that resonates across several categories. Jonathan mixes catchy riffs, a cool beat and warm vocals with harmonizing as the backdrop for a gospel that you will want to hear over and over again. Our favorite: “Who Is Like The Lord”. These songs were written, arranged and produced by Butler reflecting on personal experiences and conviction. The music is world class and the lyrics resonate to make this a super effort.
