Joe Bonamassa
(show start 8pm - no support)
Celebrated and award-winning blues rock guitarist and singer songwriter, Joe Bonamassa in association with J&R Adventures and N&P Touring is pleased to announce his tour comes to Liverpool in April 2025.
Backed by a stellar band of legendary musicians, the set list for this show will feature new songs alongside career-spanning favourites. By exceeding his own vertiginously high artistic goals, Bonamassa has shattered all expectations with 27 #1 Billboard Blues Albums (more than any other artist in history). Bonamassa’s career in the music industry has built steadily over the years and continues to gain momentum.
Bonamassa has toured the world many times, and is without a doubt, one of the biggest blues guitarists, vocalists, and entertainers around. He recently supported The Rolling Stones at Lumen Field Stadium in Seattle and received a standing ovation from excited Stones fans.
“I am looking forward to touring the UK again,” says Joe. “UK audiences have always been supportive of my music. The fans are always energetic and enthusiastic.”
“If you haven’t got a ticket for the show, get one and that’s an order! You won’t be disappointed.”
– The Rockpit
“Bonamassa’s guitar playing is as slick as ever… he plays some of the best blues on the global circuit in modern times.”
– MetalTalk
“Joe Bonamassa shows are always special… tonight was one hell of a performance.”
– Sonic Abuse
“Bonamassa’s guitar solo is quite something to behold and an absolute masterclass in how to make a crowd go crazy… an unforgettable, otherworldly performance.”
– Rock and Blues Muse
“As with every gig I have seen him perform he shows that he loves the music and is as invested in it as his audience is. A brilliant night.” – Music-News
