tour dates for 2019 in support of his all-original studio album
Redemption (J&R Adventures), which was released last September. New
tour dates will go on sale Friday March 15th and will be available at
www.jbonamassa.com/tour-dates.The tour follows an astounding 30+ shows
already this year and will be capped off with Joe’s inaugural
Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea Mediterranean Cruise (for more
information visit bluesaliveatseaeurope.com ). Backed by a stellar
band of legendary musicians including Late Night with David
Letterman’s Anton Fig (drums), Nashville recording legend Michael
Rhodes (bass), Rock & Roll Hall of Famer and member of Stevie Ray
Vaughan and Double Trouble, Reese Wynans (piano/organ), Paulie Cerra
(sax), Lee Thornburg (trumpet), and featuring soulful background
singers to bring a whole new life to the show which will feature brand
new songs alongside career-spanning favorites. The newly announced
dates are set to hit major venues across the East Coast and Midwest in
North America. This leg of his tour kicks off on July 22 at
Nashville’s trademark staple Ryman Auditorium, will stop at the
Rockland Trust Bank Pavilion in Boston, MA on July 26, and ends at the
legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, CO, for a one-of-a-kind
celebration, both are venues that Bonamassa has previously sold out!
The Red Rocks event will feature two, not just one, performances – a
major milestone for the iconic guitar player. This includes two
incredible nights of two very different set lists as he celebrates the
five-year anniversary of his first-time at Red Rocks; an event that
fans and critics alike will not want to miss! Furthermore, on July 30,
Bonamassa will perform at the historic Bethel Woods Center, site of
the original Woodstock Festival, where he will be a major headliner
for their special 50th anniversary celebration. Joe Bonamassa
Bonamassa is one of today’s top live performers and his enthusiastic
shows are one of the biggest parts of his career, and a favorite for
music lovers worldwide. Hailed internationally as one of the greatest
guitar players of his generation, Bonamassa has almost single-handedly
redefined the blues-rock genre and brought it into the mainstream.
He’s on the road about 200 days out of the year, and when he’s not
on stage, he’s fully committed to crafting the most intricate,
diversified new music to share with his dedicated audiences and fans.
In 2018, Bonamassa achieved his 21st #1 album on the Billboard Blues
Chart, with Redemption, his most ambitious, barrier-breaking studio
album yet. With over 30 albums to his credit, including studio and
live recordings, collaborative albums with blues sensation Beth Hart,
and side projects Black Country Communion and Rock Candy Funk Party,
the guitar sensation somehow always finds ways to reinvent his
artistry. Earlier this year, Bonamassa also became the host of a new
weekly show on SiriusXM’s Bluesville. The show, Different Shades of
Blue with Joe Bonamassa, explores all aspects of the blues music genre
like never before and has Bonamassa curating his favorite blues songs
with an eclectic mix of everything from legendary classics to
historical deep cuts and modern hits, airing 6pm ET every Monday on
SiriusXM channel 74. A prolific writer who is always on the hunt to
expand his eclectic musical horizons and develop new ways to interact
with fans, Bonamassa has a limitless work ethic whether it’s in
studio, on the road, or working with other artists to spur new music.
This year on the road, audiences see Bonamassa at his ultimate
creative peak as an artist, and with these new tour additions his fire
is unstoppable. With a vast, unparalleled catalogue of music under his
belt, this tour promises to be Bonamassa’s best. For tickets and
