Jon Batiste is at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre for The Big Money Tour – Jon Batiste Plays America on Saturday, October 11, 2025. Batiste is a five-time Grammy Award-winning and Academy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and composer.
‘Beethoven Blues (Batiste Piano Series, Vol. 1)’, his eighth studio album – was released in November 2024. The album marks the first installment in his new solo piano series. The project showcases Batiste’s interpolations of some of Beethoven’s most iconic works reimagined through an expansive lens. These reimagined classics embody the indomitable spirit of the blues. And, true to Batiste’s “message of open-armed inclusivity” (New York Times), embrace a broad genre spectrum.
The album follows ‘World Music Radio’ (released August 2023), which draws inspiration from Batiste’s mission to create community and expand culture with the power of music. It features collaborators including Jon Bellion, Lana Del Rey, Lil’ Wayne, and more. The album received positive reviews from critics who praised the project for its universal message and genre-defying sound. In fact, it was hailed by NPR as “a sprawling exploration of what global music can sound like”. The album received a total of five Grammy nominations, including Album of the Year.
