Joe Bonamassa to release ‘Live At Carnegie Hall - An Acoustic Evening’ this summer
Blues rock hero Joe Bonamassa will release a new live album and concert film this June.
‘Joe Bonamassa Live At Carnegie Hall - An Acoustic Evening’ was recorded over two nights on 21st and 22nd January 2016 at Joe’s all-acoustic shows at the world-famous Carnegie Hall in New York.
The unique gigs saw Joe perform stripped down versions of some of his biggest anthems together with brand new, never-heard-before songs.
He was flanked by an eclectic array of musicians including Chinese cellist Tina Guo and Egyptian percussionist and Jimmy Page/Robert Plant collaborator Hossam Ramzy. The line-up also featured Reese Wynans (piano), Anton Fig (Drums) Eric Bazilian (mandolin, hurdy-gurdy, saxophone, acoustic guitar, vocals) and backing vocalists, Mahalia Barnes, Juanita Tippins and Gary Pinto.
Joe comments: "Despite being among the most ambitious things I’ve done – I played with a 9-piece acoustic band – It came out great. It was a typical Joe freak show."
‘Joe Bonamassa Live At Carnegie Hall - An Acoustic Evening’ is released on CD, DVD, Blu-Ray and Vinyl on Friday 23rd June 2017. You can preorder it now right here.
