Joe Bonamassa To Release Live Album ‘Now Serving:Royal Tea-Live From The Ryman’

Written by Johnson Stephen on April 22, 2021

In 2020, when Covid-19 put the live touring industry on hold, Joe Bonamassa did something unprecedented for his fans, he put together a one-night-only live-streamed show at the iconic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN.

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.

The concert has now been re-mixed and mastered for physical release as ‘Now Serving:Royal Tea Live From The Ryman’. It will be available to own on June 11th 2021 and available on the following formats:CD, DVD, Blu-Ray and Double LP. The DVD will include a film introduction narrated by actor Jeff Daniels.

Recalling the magical night, Bonamassa shares ”I have always wanted to film a show at the legendary Ryman Auditorium in Nashville. Our band has had the honor of playing there now 8 1/2 times over the past 10 years. The audience is always alive and electric, hanging on every word and phrase. It feels like the greatest, most intimate gig you will ever do, but there are 2,300 people sharing this joy and musical journey. I love the place as it is a national treasure and selfishly close to my house. Here’s where I get to the 1/2 part. We missed you. As great as it is to be on that stage in any capacity, YOU the fans make it special. You are part of the show and a big part of it. As this show was being filmed live, almost 100,000 eyes were on us in various forms around the world in front of TVs and computers alike. But you were not in the room with us.”
