"The world’s busiest bluesman’s singing is better than ever, and he still turns in a foot-stomping blues riff better than most" & "He is, in short, a modern-day king of the blues." - Classic Rock Magazine’s Louder Sound

"You don’t attend or watch a Joe Bonamassa concert, you feel it, you experience it, and in a setting such as The Royal Albert Hall, it’s the perfect combination. You can sense the mutual respect Joe Bonamassa has for the venue, and this marvellous venue has for Joe Bonamassa."
- Metal Planet Music

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 two UK exclusive concerts at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London on Thursday 4 April and Friday 5 April 2024.

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 26 #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 is only gaining more momentum.

The Royal Albert Hall shows celebrate the 15th anniversary since Joe first played the Royal Albert Hall in May 2009; a momentous concert which changed Joe’s career overnight.  The first time Joe played the Royal Albert Hall, he was joined onstage by Eric Clapton.  From there, the rest is history.

“The Royal Albert Hall is a special venue for me personally,” Joe.  It’s the first venue that literally changed my career overnight. I always look forward to playing the venue because, not only is it a beautiful venue, but the staff are amazing, and the audiences are second to none.  It’s always an emotional experience whenever I play the RAH.”

"Taking to the stage to rapturous applause… Joe Bonamassa remains at the top of his game." - In Common

"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."
