Photo: Signed Guitar | By Matt Owen, Guitar World | Auction ends THIS Sunday, November 12th | Joe Bonamassa has helped launch a fundraiser in support of fellow blues guitar virtuoso Kirk Fletcher, who has been struggling with medical issues recently after suffering a stroke onstage.
The bluesman suffered the stroke during a performance at Tennessee’s Eastside Bowl back in July, and has been forced out of onstage action ever since.
To support Fletcher and help offset the burden of his medical bills and living expenses, JoBo and his Keeping the Blues Alive Foundation have sponsored a fundraiser auction, which will see the sale of a bumper gear package.
Announcing the auction on Instagram Bonamassa explained, “It’s to help our friend Kirk Fletcher, who’s been having some medical troubles for the last couple of months – and he’s in need of some financial help until he can get back out gigging full time.”
The auction comprises a comprehensive collection of gear, which is headed up by a 2022 Gibson Les Paul Custom signed by all of those who performed at the 2023 Keeping the Blues Alive cruise. That includes Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram, Blackberry Smoke, Cardinal Black, Ruthie Foster, Bonamassa himself, and others.
