Help Joe kick start the historical documentary: “Sidemen”.
A must see by the world.
Joe Bonamassa is supporting fundraising efforts for the producers of the incredible documentary Sidemen: Long Road to Glory. This amazing documentary film about the lives of three Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf sidemen, Pinetop Perkins, Hubert Sumlin, and Willie “Big Eyes” Smith, is completed. Those who have seen the film are ecstatic about it. It had a tremendous festival run in 2016 and audiences can’t say enough about the quality and importance of the film.
Unfortunately, the costs associated with the music rights and clearances are so high that the film is danger of never getting a real release. In order to raise the funds, a Kickstarter campaign is underway and Joe Bonamassa is helping to spearhead the efforts to make sure this documentary, such a crucial historical documentation of under-recognized blues legends, gets the release that it deserves.
Anything you can contribute will help Joe in this mission that is so important to him as both a blues musician and as a lover of the blues, just like you.
