It's that time of the year again! Bluebird Reviews is getting ready, for the third consecutive year, to reward the world of music and, particularly, those artists that have shone above the others, either through spectacular live performances or for having brought to a great year for music, like 2018, some of the great material that they have ever recorded in their careers through our Bluebird Reviews Awards.
Once again, Bluebird Reviews has gathered together a prestigious International Music Panel to decide who is going to be the winner of the 2018 Awards. This year's Award Committee is made by members of National Radio Networks, Music Promoters, Music Journalists, Music Festival Promoters and Organizers, Music Editors and Live Music Producers from 5 different countries (USA, Uk, Italy, Spain and Norway), all ready to judge the winners of the two Awards categories, Artist Of The Year and Best Live Act.

There are not as many pioneering artists left around as American singer/songwriter Don McLean. In a career span of almost half a century, McLean has been and still is one of the most prominent musicians in the history of American Music.
After an 8-years hiatus from his latest studio album, Addicted To Black, Don McLean announced, earlier this year, the release of his 19th studio album called Botanical Garden, one of the most significant works in the overall glorious career of one of America's most iconic artists.
Joe Bonamassa - Redemption
- Details
- Written by Giovanni "Gio" Pilato
The last decade of the life and career of Blues/Rock Guitar Supremo and singer/songwriter Joe Bonamassa has been particularly intense, between touring, recording and releasing a myriad of live albums, being involved in many side projects (Black Country Communion, Beth Hart, Rock Candy Funk Party) and few studio albums.
Despite the global popularity, though and the immense talent inbuilt in this formidable musician, the latest Bonamassa’s studio albums didn’t manage to deliver quite the same level of artistic beauty that modern Blues/Rock masterpieces like You And Me, Blues Deluxe or Black Rock reached, for example. Sometimes that the American artist, somehow, might have perceived too, being the clever musician that he is.
