The discography of Joe Bonamassa, an American blues rock musician, consists of seventeen studio albums, five collaboration albums, twenty-one live albums, eighty-three singles (seventy-one as lead artist and twelve as a featured artist), sixteen video albums, thirty-two music videos and fifty-five other appearances.
Bonamassa began his solo career in 2000 with the release of A New Day Yesterday. The album reached number 9 on the US Billboard Blues Albums chart two years later. The guitarist continued to see success within the blues genre, topping said chart for the first time with 2002's So, It's Like That, then again with You & Me in 2006, before making his debut on the Billboard 200 with his 2007 album Sloe Gin, which reached number 184. Bonamassa's commercial success continued to increase in later years—he reached the Billboard 200 top 40 for the first time with 2010's Black Rock, then broke the top 10 with Different Shades of Blue in 2014; on the UK Albums Chart, he reached the top 10 with five consecutive studio albums starting with Driving Towards the Daylight in 2012.
As well as regular studio releases, Bonamassa has released a string of live albums and videos from various touring cycles and special shows. His first of these to chart in the US was Live from Nowhere in Particular, which reached number 136 on the Billboard 200 and topped the Blues Albums chart in 2008. Outside his solo work, the guitarist has also collaborated with singer Beth Hart on three studio albums and a live release, with 2013's Seesaw reaching the US Billboard 200 top 50. He has also contributed songs to numerous albums by other artists, including Joe Lynn Turner, Ozzy Osbourne and Don Airey, as well as various tribute albums and compilations.
In 2020, Bonamassa created Keeping the Blues Alive Records, an independent record label that promotes and supports the talent of blues musicians. Since his latest studio album, Breakthrough (2025), Bonamassa holds the record for most number one blues albums with 29 (a total of 30 including the collaborative B.B. King's Blues Summit 100 in 2026).
