About the Tedeschi Trucks Band

Tedeschi Trucks Band is an 11-member collective that thrills audiences with its transcendent live performances and award-winning albums. The Boston Herald says TTB "booms like a soul thunderclap." Formed in 2010 by husband-and-wife Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks, and featuring two harmony singers, a three-piece horn section, keyboards, bass and a pair of drummers, TTB disproves the adage "less is more" while building a devoted following of fans and critics alike.

Just three years in, Tedeschi Trucks Band has toured extensively and played to packed houses in the world's most celebrated venues. TTB's debut release Revelator earned both a Grammy and Blues Music Award while 2011's Everybody's Talkin' delivered a double-disc classic reminiscent of legendary concert recordings. Currently the band is touring in support of its second studio effort, Made Up Mind, which entered Billboard at number 11 and was hailed by Rolling Stone as "equal parts Stax and Muscle Shoals without dilution of either."

Emerging as one of the most respected guitarists of his generation, Trucks led his own Derek Trucks Band for more than 15 years prior to teaming with Tedeschi. Presently and for the past 13 years the Florida native also performs as a full member of the Allman Brothers Band and has toured with both Eric Clapton and Carlos Santana. The slide guitar wunderkind was voted number 16 of the top 100 Guitarists of All Time by Rolling Stone!

No stranger to center stage herself, singer-guitarist Susan Tedeschi started playing in bands in her hometown of Boston at age 13. Her knack for combining American roots music, particularly electric blues, Southern soul and gospel with passionate, awe-inspiring vocal prowess has resulted in a prolific solo career full of award-winning records, six Grammy nominations and a devoted following. Blessed with a voice that ranges from powerful R&B belters to gentle ballads, Tedeschi is a talented guitarist as well, her style alternately recalling post-war electric blues and Hendrix-inspired rock.

This ensemble of 11 is concerned more with the sound than the spotlight. Sharing a level of respect and camaraderie rarely found in rock and roll, Tedeschi Trucks Band has found a magical combination that delivers an unforgettable, can't-miss concert experience.
