TEDESCHI TRUCKS BAND

SYNOPSIS

Returning to Australia for the first time in eight years, Tedeschi Trucks Band is a Grammy Award-winning 12-piece rock and soul powerhouse, that holds a well-deserved reputation as one of the best live acts touring today. Led by the husband/wife duo of guitarist Derek Trucks and singer/guitarist Susan Tedeschi, “two of the best roots rock musicians of their generation” (NPR), TTB are renowned for their world-class musicianship and contemporary blend of a wide range of American musical influences that define their extensive catalog. They will perform two sets for audiences at their Sydney and Melbourne shows.

The band is currently touring behind their 2022 release, I Am The Moon, TTB’s fifth and most ambitious studio project to date. Written while off the road during the pandemic, I Am The Moon captures a prolific and collaborative songwriting period for TTB that was inspired by an ancient poem of star-crossed lovers. I Am The Moon includes four albums, I.Crescent, II. Ascension, III. The Fall, IV. Farewell and four companion films – delivering more than two hours of music that unfold across a robust tapestry of genre-defying explorations and propel the treasured American ensemble into new and thrilling creative territory.

Since forming in 2010, TTB’s caravan has traveled countless miles to bring their music to audiences around the world. From selling out Madison Square Garden and multi-night sell-out residencies across America, to barnstorming tours through Europe and Japan, the band’s shows are an eagerly anticipated highlight of the live music calendar and “nothing short of exhilarating” (Salon).
