Following the momentum from his U.S. Spring Tour and the ninth annual voyage of his KEEPING THE BLUES ALIVE AT SEA cruise, Joe Bonamassa has announced his U.S. Fall 2024 Tour, promising an extraordinary series of performances that underscore his unparalleled prowess and contribution to the blues-rock genre.
Recognized globally as one of the most talented guitarists of his era and dubbed “the world’s biggest blues guitarist” by Guitar World Magazine, Bonamassa continues to redefine blues-rock, bringing it into the mainstream with electrifying live shows that captivate music aficionados across the world. The tour is set to showcase an array of new songs alongside fan-favorite hits, performed with the support of a legendary backing band.
Kicking off on Monday, October 28th in Santa Barbara, CA, Bonamassa’s U.S. Fall 2024 Tour will see the guitar virtuoso performing at prestigious venues across the country, including The Linda Ronstadt Music Hall in Tucson, AZ on Friday, November 1st, the Cheyenne Civic Center in Cheyenne, WY on Sunday, November 17th, and a special two-night run at the State Theatre in Minneapolis, MN on Friday, November 22nd-Saturday, November 23rd, before concluding at the Des Moines Civic Center in Des Moines, IA on Saturday, November 30th.
This tour not only highlights Joe’s dynamic live performance skills but also his continuous ambition to surpass his already lofty artistic achievements, having amassed 27 #1 Billboard Blues Albums – more than any other artist in history.

“Words themselves are simply inadequate to fully describe the guitar wizardry of Joe Bonamassa. ‘Amazing,’ ‘astounding,’ ‘unbelievable,’ ‘mind-blowing,’ ‘unequalled,’ ‘superlative.’ Yes, they all work, but are still insufficient to convey the experience of witnessing Joe Bonamassa live,” describes Americana Highways.
As Bonamassa gears up for this highly anticipated tour, he also continues to make waves with the upcoming release of his new album, Live at the Hollywood Bowl with Orchestra. This monumental project celebrates his historic performance at the iconic Hollywood Bowl, offering fans a blend of Bonamassa’s signature guitar brilliance with the majesty of a full orchestra. The latest single from this album, “The Last Matador Of Bayonne,” has already garnered acclaim for its emotional depth and narrative, reinforcing Joe’s status as a master storyteller through music.
Live at the Hollywood Bowl with Orchestra is a testament to Bonamassa’s storied career, illustrating his virtuosic blend of blues and rock elevated by orchestral arrangements from some of Hollywood’s finest. This release follows the album’s lead single, a riveting rendition of “Twenty-Four Hour Blues,” and continues to draw fans deeper into Joe’s musical journey. With arrangements by the legendary David Campbell, Trevor Rabin and Jeff Bova and featuring musicians like Rashawn Ross (Dave Matthews Band), the album captures the essence of Bonamassa’s talent and the power of live music.

Bonamassa is captivating audiences across Europe this month with a series of performances, paving the way for his eagerly awaited “Blues Deluxe Tour” in the U.S. this summer. Beginning Wednesday, July 17th in Selbyville, DE, and culminating in an unforgettable two-night performance in Hampton Beach, NH, on August 30th and 31st, the tour celebrates Bonamassa’s seminal albums Blues Deluxe and its chart-topping successor, Blues Deluxe Vol. 2. This 21-city tour will showcase an electrifying mix of Bonamassa’s classics and deep tracks live for the first time, alongside a band of world-class musicians.
