Joe Bonamassa

Blues musician Joe Bonamassa just had his 26th No. 1 album on the Billboard Blues Albums chart with Tales of Time, a live recording of his 2021 album Time Clocks recorded in 2022 at the legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado. Joe talks to Behind the Setlist about his latest tour, the concert that became Tales of Time, covering songs by Tom Waits and ZZ Top, which younger blues musicians he thinks are exciting, and his not-for-profit, Keeping the Blues Alive, that raises money for music education and helped cash-strapped musicians during the pandemic. 

Joe is currently on tour in Europe and will perform in Germany on May 5 and 6, Luxembourg on May 7 and France on May 10. He will play five dates in the U.K. from May 9 to 14 before returning to the U.S. to perform at the Capitol Theatre in Yakima, WA, on May 26 and the Backroad Blues Festival with Kenny Wayne Sheppard in Bend, OR, on May 27.
