Concert in your area for Folk & Blues, Rock, Country, and Funk & Soul.
The band started in 2010 when husband and wife Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks each put their solo bands on hiatus so that they could put more time into making music with each other, both during the recording process, as well as during touring. They were later joined by Maurice Brown, Kofi Burbridge, Tyler Greenwell, J.J Johnson, Mike Mattison, Mark Rivers, Saunders Sermons, Kebbi Williams and Oteil Burbridge. As Tedeschi Trucks band, they made their first live performance at the Savannah Music Festival in April 2010, followed by appearances at Crossroads Guitar Festival and Fuji Rock Festival (among many others).
Tedeschi Trucks Band released their first studio album entitled “Revelator” that was released on 7 June 2011. The album garnered a high praise from critics, including Rolling Stone, who gave it a four out of five rating. Additionally, the album went on to win a Grammy Award for Best Blues Album in 2012. Their second album, “Everybody’s Talkin’” was a live album consisting of performances of “Revelator,” as well as covers of other well known rock, R&B and gospel songs. Despite the success, Oteil Burbridge took leave from the band to pursue a family life, and was replaced by Tim Lefebvre. The band continued on making life performance appearances, and in 2013 they released their second studio album entitled “Made Up My Mind.”
Tedeschi Trucks Band is an 11 piece band that is full of soulful, bluesy, jazzy rock. Derek Trucks (Allman Brothers Band, Derek Trucks Band, etc.) and Susan Tedeschi are married and have joined forces that have resulted in one of the pure musical magic.
Derek's guitar playing is absolutely phenomenal. He plays with a passion that oozes soul and blues and he is one of the best slide guitar players of all time. His writing and attachments are genius. He is the real deal.
Susan's voice is a raspy gem. She belts out the blues and soul rock with the best of them and she plays a mighty fine guitar herself.
Two drummers bring that Allman Brothers feel and pound out a grey beat. Jodi Burbridge is a gift on the keyboard. His fingers deliver a soulful funky vibe that blends the songs so well. A great bass line along with a 3 piece horn section make this band tight as can be, hit all the notes and moves you like not other band.
Mike Mattison (Derek Trucks Band, Scrapomatic, solo) hangs with his partner in back vocals and helps bring this band to an even higher level. Mike's voice is up there with the best and he delivers. Every song grabs you and takes you with it.
If you like blues, soul, jazz and rock, if you like the Allman Brothers, Warren Haynes, Bobby Blue Bland, Albert King, Freedie King, live jams that are intensely amazing. Foot stomping, dancing tunes and just a blast of a time at alive concert you will love TTB. Can't wait to see the in September 2 more times!
WOW....where do I start????
What an amazing show!
BY FAR the best concert I've seen in a while.
We have seen him with his daddy at The King Center in Melbourne Fla. Then last year in Ashville NC at The Orange Peel. Now I am currently waiting with much anticipation for tickets to go on sale at 10 CST for his show on May 7th at The Vinyl Music Hall in Pensacola Fla. You close your eyes and listen; he sounds just like his daddy. But he also has his own voice that is AMAZING!! Not to mention how flipping CUTE he is and SO EASY to watch!!!!!!!!! LOL
Love you Lukas
Thanks for entertaining us
Can't wait till the 7th of May.
That is also the day my Daddy went home to the Lord 8 yrs. ago. Set me down on a cloud
Sincerely
