Jonathan Butler - Close to You

'Close to You', from renowned guitarist/vocalist/songwriter Jonathan Butler, celebrates the music of Burt Bacharach. These well-loved songs find invigorated, unique interpretations that resonate as strongly as the originals. Polished to an easy, smooth shine this collection neatly crosses musical genres - covering jazz, soul and pop.

This record was inspired by my fianc� Nadira Kimberly. At home one night, we played and sang together as we listened to Close To You by the amazing Burt Bacharach. This really opened the door for me to do this amazing man's music. In 1975 I was 13 years old when my first single was released, Please Stay by none other than Burt Bacharach. It's like I've come full circle. - Jonathan Butler
