Blues of Desperation

"Blues Of Desperation"  is the twelfth full length studio album from  American blues rock guitarist, singer and songwriter Joe Bonamassa, released 25 March 2016 on the J&R Adventures label.
Blues Of Desperation was written in Nashville, with Bonamassa hooking up with James House, Tom Hambridge, Jeffrey Steele, Jerry Flowers and Gary Nicholson. It was then recorded at the city’s Grand Victor Sound Studios with the guitarist’s long-time producer Kevin Shirley.  Musicians on the album include drummers Anton Fig and Greg Morrow, bassist Michael Rhodes, keyboardist Reese Wynans, horn players Lee Thornburg, Paulie Cerra and Mark Douthit, along with singers Mahalia Barnes, Jade McRae and Juanita Tippins.
Like his previous solo disc, 2014’s Top 10 Billboard hit Different Shades of Blue, this record features all-original material, and it sees the superstar guitarist, singer and songwriter tossing away the rule book as he continues to reinvent and redefine the blues-rock genre like no other artist working today.
