Joe Bonamassa is back with a brand-new single, ‘Shake This Ground,’ out now via J&R Adventures. A bold, anthemic call to shake free from the past and present, the track pulses with raw intensity, pairing Bonamassa‘s masterful guitar work with gripping storytelling and an unrelenting rhythm.
Co-written by Bonamassa and James House, ‘Shake This Ground’ is about hitting a rough patch in a relationship and finding a way to shake things up before it’s too late.
Produced by longtime collaborator Kevin Shirley (Iron Maiden, The Black Crowes, Journey), ‘Shake This Ground’ expands Bonamassa‘s ever-evolving sound while staying rooted in his blues-rock foundation and is the first glimpse from his upcoming new studio album slated for later this year. The track arrives on the heels of his recent collaboration with Sammy Hagar on the searing single ‘Fortune Teller Blues,’ further cementing Bonamassa‘s place at the forefront of modern blues.
The release of ‘Shake This Ground’ comes amid a whirlwind year for Bonamassa, who is currently on the road for his 2025 U.S. Tour, including a SOLD OUT show at The Beacon Theatre in New York City this week. Following his sold-out U.S. dates, Bonamassa will set sail on the 10th Anniversary Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea X Cruise (March 21-26), a premier floating blues festival featuring an all-star lineup, including Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Larkin Poe, Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, Samantha Fish, Joanne Shaw Taylor and many more.
