About Me

Cam Butler :

Okey doke fellow myspacians -- I shall now refer to myself from now on in the 3rd person - this is highly interesting stuff so read on .....

Cam is the founder, guitarist and main composer with internationally lauded 3 piece instrumental band, Silver Ray who released their 4th album, Homes For Everyone in 2007.

He (that is, ah, me) has released 4 solo albums Crazy Dreams (2003), Go Slow (2005), See (Symphony No. 1) (2006) and Healing Feelings (2007). The first 3 of these albums feature dramatic and darkly, beautiful mini-symphonies; highly melodic and deeply personal. They combine lush and emotive guitar, drums, atmospheric guitar loops and orchestral string sections


Here's a rundown -

Crazy Dreams - his first solo album - dark folky, rock sounds with strings, samples, guitars.

"Grand and spacious, evoking images of melancholy and tenderness..."

Go Slow - Electric guitar, drums, orchestral percussion and a 20 piece string orchestra !

See (Symphony No. 1) - A dark and thrilling modern symphony.

Healing Feelings - “Not quite folk, not quite electronica - acoustic ragas…”
12 string acoustic guitar, drums & loops.

He has formed The Shadows of Love Orchestra to perform these albums in concert -- strings, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, drums,loops -- a tasty brew.

Cam has finished work on his latest symphonic album featuring guitars and drums and The Shadows Of Love Orchestra. Entitled Dark Times (Symphony No.2) it will be released in Australia in July.

You get one life. Some get two, but you get one. Wanna spend it on an iceberg ? On Venus ? Cam's spending his up in Deep Dark Dreamsville. Two cents a scoop. Fishing for nerve endings in the old felt creek. Here's today's catch. Right on time. Dark Time. Still twitchin' and tickin' in the basket. You wanna get close, but not get burned. You want what ?? You may be in the wrong place. Maybe you never wanted to visit Deep Dark Dreamsville, but you get lost and ended up here. It's narrow, oily lanes, upturned buckets, splinter boats,
pencil frogs and oven children.
It's lime time. You got lost,
but now yer stayin',
right ? Right. Don't
be like the sun
and the moon,
today or
tonight.
