Roots/Alt-Country's KENNY BUTTERILL --
Sweet Success on the Road Less Traveled!

Hellertown, PA (May 16, 2003) - - Who says you have to do things a certain way? That's the way Canadian songwriter/producer Kenny Butterill sees things. And based on the glowing reaction to his new "JUST A SONGWRITER" CD, Butterill is proving there is more than one right way to "do" the music business.

Criticized by some who say he's a brilliant songwriter who produces terrific, radio-friendly, alt-country/roots music - but shuns touring, Butterill's contrarian approach without showbiz may point the way to a new path for similar songwriters. In an 'against the odds' story, Butterill has gone from "No One You Know" (the name of his first CD) to become a chart success, globally, while remaining "JUST A SONGWRITER" (his latest release).

This month finds Butterill's "JUST A SONGWRITER" CD debuting in all the leading USA-based Roots/Americana charts including the Global Freeform American Roots (FAR) Chart, the Roots Music Report (RMR) Chart and the AMA Americana Music Chart. And over in Europe where his CD has yielded two Top 10 Country crossover hits in four months, prominent Italian radio personality Massimo Ferro said Butterill's "JUST A SONGWRITER" CD "is destined to become one of the best efforts released by a contemporary songwriter from North America in recent times!"

Ever one to experiment but on his own terms, Butterill has an 'Easy Chair Audio/Video Satellite Tour' project in the works and, with record label licensing/distribution agreements covering a good part of the globe, he's one songwriter that couldn't be happier.

A quiet rebel of grace, Butterill's success as "JUST A SONGWRITER" - on his own road less traveled - has shined the light where it really belongs - on the music!
