Joe Bonamassa is surely a household name for most guitar fans. Known for his impeccable guitar skills, great songwriting and vocals in a career that saw him opening for BB King at the age of only 12, he has risen to the level of blues superstar, selling out venues around the world with his amazing live concerts, where his bandmates include legendary musicians such as keyboard and Hammond organ player, Reese Wynans and the late, great Michael Rhodes on bass.
Having an impressive recorded catalogue too, Bonamassa’s influences are numerous, including Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and Jeff Beck as well as original blues guitar heroes like BB King. These influences come together in a unique and masterful style which can hear Joe play anything from beautifully constructed classic blues solos to hard riffing, driving rock infused tunes containing trademark rapid Pentatonic lines and Eric Johnson-inspired cascades of notes.
