Joe Bonamassa
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 27TH MARCH 2013
Nearby

American blues rock guitarist and singer Joe Bonamassa plays four nights in different iconic London venues this March on the back of his 11th studio album, Driving Towards the Daylight, which peaked at #2 in the UK charts in spring 2012. Starting at the intimate Borderline and ending five days later at the magical Royal Albert Hall, the internationally renowned guitarist will also drop into the Shepherd's Bush Empire and Hammersmith Apollo on his whistle-stop tour of the capital. The 35-year-old from upstate New York has been playing the guitar since the age of four, opened for B.B. King at the age of 12 and at 14 formed a band with Miles Davis' son. That's quite some resume from "the new messiah for guitar music lovers" (The Sun) who has fast forged a reputation as "the pre-eminent blues-rock guitarist of his generation" (The Guardian).
About Shepherd's Bush Empire
The Empire is, admittedly, not the most comfortable of venues - the standing area is sunk so far beneath the main stage that anyone under six foot risks painful neck injuries if they want to watch from close-up. Still, the faded grandeur of this former BBC recording theatre, a fantastic acoustic, and the cheerful international population of Shepherd's Bush all add up to a fun live experience, and many musicians cite this as their favourite London venue to perform in.
