Amazon Music Live Returns Oct. 17 With Country Breakout Jelly Roll
Amazon Music Live, a livestreamed concert series broadcast after NFL Thursday Night Football, announced it is returning for a third season and will premiere on Oct. 17 with Jelly Roll performing new songs from his upcoming album, Beautifully Broken. The country breakout star will be the first of seven acts to perform this season, which is sponsored by the 2025 Nissan Kicks.
Jelly Roll will perform in front of a live audience in Los Angeles, and fans can watch the show exclusively on two of the streaming giant’s platforms: Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch.
“I am kicking off the third season of Amazon Music Live after Thursday Night Football on October 17!” Jelly Roll said in a statement. “Can’t wait to take the stage and perform songs from the new album, Beautifully Broken, and some surprises as well. Thank you, everyone, for this massive opportunity. Let’s go!”
Since 2022, Amazon has taken advantage of NFL viewership to highlight new music from some of the biggest artists in the business and previous seasons of Amazon Music Live featured stars like Ed Sheeran, Feid, Peso Pluma and A$AP Rocky. The third season will feature seven episodes, including a season finale following the second annual Black Friday Black Football game on Nov. 29. Legendary country singer Garth Brooks headlined Amazon Music Live following last year’s first-ever Black Friday football broadcast.
Additional “blockbuster performances” will be announced in the coming weeks, according to the release.
“When we first conceived of Amazon Music Live three years ago, we wanted to make Thursday night an event. For music fans, Thursday nights are the first moment to hear new music from their favorite artists, and for football fans, it’s the kickoff to another week of drama and suspense. Three years on and millions of viewers later, fans know that AML is a can’t-miss event after the biggest game of the week,” Kirdis Postelle, global head of content for Amazon Music, said in a statement. “We know Jelly Roll is going to bring the house down with his season premiere, and that’s just the beginning. We can’t wait to show you what we have in store for the rest of the season.”
