This looks very interesting. Not really familiar with his music but anything new in surround on Blu-ray is good news! I'm in for sure :)!

Kenny Wayne Shepherd - The Traveler Pure Audio Blu-ray Edition

Dolby Atmos / Dolby Atmos Headphone Mix / PCM audio formats

True High-Resolution 24bit/96k audiophile sound; both 5.1 surround sound mix, stereo mix included

2019 release. The Traveler is an album of experience and profound resonance by the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band. Recorded in Los Angeles, while the band was on a break from their uncompromising tour schedule that left them road-tested and ready to rock, The Traveler showcases some world-class musicians: vocalist Noah Hunt, drummer Chris "Whipper" Layton (formerly of Stevie Ray Vaughan's Double Trouble), bassist Kevin McCormick, and keyboardists Jimmy McGorman and Joe Krown. The album features 10 songs including eight new originals co-written by KWS and some of Nashville's most in-demand songwriters, plus incendiary covers of Buffalo Springfield's "Mr. Soul" and Joe Walsh's "Turn to Stone."

Features:
• High-Fidelity Pure Audio
• Audio: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 / Dolby Atmos / Dolby Atmos Headphone Mix / PCM Stereo
• Picture (Menus): 1080P / 23.98FPS / 16:9 Widescreen — The Making of The Traveler
• Plays on Blu-Ray Compatible Players ONLY!

Oh wow, that takes me back...

I saw him play at the 100 Club in London on 01 Aug 1996 (£7.50). The room was quite full of celebs who had come to see the young nineteen year old play guitar. Awesome night :)

It is on the amazon.ca site, listed as Currently Unavailable, likely will change before the release date.
Hope this is part of the leading edge of the release of a bunch of Atmos titles.

Yep, I have .ca sending me an email if it becomes available. Don't want to miss this one though, so I'll keep my .com pre-order for now in case it doesn't show on the Canadian site.

Thanks. Don’t know how I missed the link above but weird I couldn’t find it on amazon searching for it as Blu-ray or 5.1
No problem, just glad you were able to find it. I had a chance to listen to the Blu-ray and I personally liked it. It is quite active surround wise with a lot of the guitar solos switching channels and ping ponging between speakers. Overall an engaging mix with some impressive guitar work. I'm glad I bought the album.
