 Guitar Legend Joe Bonamassa Launches Breakthrough A Fearless, Genre-Blending Album Showcasing 10 Electrifying New Originals! Release date: July, 18, 2025 In a career built on constant reinvention, Joe Bonamassa is ready to embark on his boldest chapter yet. The blues-rock icon has just announced Breakthrough — his most daring and genre-defying studio album to date. Crafted across multiple continents and fueled by global inspiration, Breakthrough showcases Bonamassa at his most adventurous. The album pulses with fiery guitar solos, emotionally charged storytelling, groove-laden arrangements, and fearless stylistic exploration. Produced by longtime collaborator Kevin Shirley (Iron Maiden, The Black Crowes, Journey), Breakthrough was brought to life through sessions in Greece, Egypt, Nashville, and Los Angeles, weaving together a rich sonic tapestry that effortlessly moves from funky blues and Texas swing to acoustic ballads and swaggering hard rock. "I believe Breakthrough represents a pivotal moment in Joe’s musical journey," says Shirley. "While the signature guitar mastery is still very much present, this album puts a spotlight on the songs themselves. Every time Joe records, he taps into a vast jukebox of styles in his mind. Here, he takes listeners on a true musical odyssey—from Little Feat-style funk to raw Texas swing, from hard-hitting rock to intimate, singer-songwriter moments." Leading the charge is the powerful title track, "Breakthrough", co-written with Grammy-winning collaborator Tom Hambridge (Buddy Guy, ZZ Top, Lynyrd Skynyrd). The soaring anthem captures the heart of the album: a celebration of growth, resilience, and letting go of what holds us back. With gritty, impassioned vocals, searing guitar lines, and lush instrumentation, "Breakthrough" signals a bold new era for Bonamassa. The announcement follows the recent buzz surrounding Bonamassa’s singles “Still Walking With Me” and “Shake This Ground,” each offering a glimpse into the expansive spirit of the full album. From the moody introspection of "Shake This Ground" to the soulful warmth of "Still Walking With Me," Bonamassa continues to push the boundaries of his sound—anchored, as always, by his electrifying guitar work and emotional depth. With Breakthrough, Joe Bonamassa once again proves he’s not just standing still—he’s forging ahead, fearless and inspired. Tracks: 01. Breakthrough 02. Trigger Finger 03. I’ll Take The Blame 04.
