Joe Bonamassa Releases New Single and Video ‘I Want To Shout About It’
Having recently released his live concert film Tales of Time which reached #1 on the Billboard Blues Chart, Joe Bonamassa is back with a brand new single “I Want To Shout About It” from his highly anticipated new studio album, due out later this year on his J&R Adventures label.
Originally performed by Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, Joe Bonamassa reveals his rendition of “I Want To Shout About It.” Bonamassa’s joyful version features solos from Reese Wynans on organ and Paulie Cerra on sax, as well as vocals from Dannielle DeAndrea and Charles Jones as the track winds to a close. When Joe recently performed the song on his UK tour, UK music website Sonic Abuse described it as “a glorious, fifties-style boogie.”
“I Want To Shout About It” finds Joe dipping into his vintage R&B bag to brag about the love of a good woman. The track is an upbeat shuffle that’s full of joy, energy, and the goodness that love brings. It’s also a high-energy dance floor special destined to wear out some shoe leather and a total showcase for Bonamassa’s exceptionally-engaging vocals and ripping guitar. The lyric video for the song is 50 shades of fun and will make you want to see Joe live even more than you already do. “I Want To Shout About It” is yet another prime cut from the king of contemporary blues. Turn it up and start the party!

Bonamassa called upon his close friend, band mate and co-producer Josh Smith to produce this track. Smith recalls, “’Shout About It’ is a song originally by the great Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters with Darrel Nullisch on vocals. It’s a tough/high song to sing and Joe really pushed himself and nailed it. It’s a real rave up, a party song. Joe has been playing it live lately and the crowds are really digging it!”
Bonamassa has been performing “I Want To Shout About It” live on his current tour and is receiving an enthusiastic response from his audiences. His summer is packed with live shows in the US and Europe beginning with the Capitol Theatre in Yakima, WA on Friday, May 26th and ending May with Kenny Wayne Shepherd at the Backroads Blues Festival in Bend, OR and Seattle, WA.
After 3 weeks of performing on Europe Festivals in July, Joe will be back in the states for a US summer run and to make his debut appearance at the Hollywood Bowl on Wednesday, August 9th, with an exclusive, one-night-only concert experience alongside an orchestra, which will be recorded for his next live concert film.
Then the hardest working bluesman in show business begins his US Fall Tour on October 23rd at The Cannon Center in Memphis, TN, which will take him from coast-to-coast to end at the guitar shaped Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, FL. For more information and to purchase tickets, click HERE.
Cited by Guitar World as “arguably the world’s biggest blues guitarist,” Bonamassa is known for taking risks and venturing into uncharted territory throughout his wide-ranging career. His most recent full-length Time Clocks marked his most raw, rocking studio album yet, with American Songwriter sharing, “Bonamassa pushes into fresh territory while staying within a blues-based framework,” and “there is more than enough proof in this sprawling set that Bonamassa doesn’t intend to rest on his laurels or take his star status in the blues-rock genre for granted.”
Hailed as “a near spiritual experience” by Classic Rock Magazine and featuring songs from his latest #1 studio album, Time Clocks, Bonamassa’s latest live concert release Tales Of Time, captures a stratospheric performance by the blues-rock titan at Red Rocks Amphitheater, which found his virtuoso guitar style and unique technique and flair elevating the evening to an almost heavenly high. The project was produced by long-time collaborator and producer Kevin Shirley (Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, Journey).
“This live show represents our most progressive and largest production to date, focusing on my most ambitious studio album to date,” commented Bonamassa. “My band was a force of nature on this show, and it truly was a special night.” For more information on ‘Tales Of Time,’ click HERE.
