Last year when COVID-19 put the live touring industry on hold, guitar hero Joe Bonamassa did something unprecedented for his fans, he put together a one night only show at the iconic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN to be live streamed for fans everywhere. That night he united people across 44 countries worldwide for a phenomenal live music presentation of his brand new album “Royal Tea” before it was even released.
Sound
Mix so clean you hear every fret squeal and Ryman reverb tail.
Production
COVID-era streaming that actually felt like being there.
Practical Effects
No audience, no problem — the band plays like 5,000 are screaming.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was one of the first major livestreams to prove virtual concerts could feel transcendent, not transactional.
The 'Royal Tea' album was recorded at Abbey Road with British blues legends; this show debuted those songs before release.
