Single Reviews

Guitar slinger and blues-rock powerhouse Joe Bonamassa has released his latest single, “Drive By The Exit Sign,” a gritty, up-tempo standout from his upcoming studio album Breakthrough, out July 18th via J&R Adventures. Fuelled by a crunchy slide guitar riff, Southern-rock energy, and a full-throttle vocal performance, “Drive By The Exit Sign” finds Bonamassa leaning into the dirtier, road-tested side of his songwriting. It’s a breakup song disguised as a highway burner—fast-paced and hook-heavy, with lyrics that evoke missed chances, wrong turns, and the emotional wreckage we leave behind.

Joe Bonamassa is no stranger to reinvention, but with his latest single “Breakthrough,” he takes a giant leap forward. The title track from his upcoming album (out July 18 via J&R Adventures) explodes with soul, swagger, and the fearless energy of an artist pushing his own limits.
