One of the most influential guitarists of the modern age and landing at #16 on Rolling Stones’ “Greatest Guitarists of All Time,” Derek Trucks led his own Grammy Award–winning Derek Trucks Band for over 15 years, and concurrently toured with Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana, and The Allman Brothers. Trucks was also the youngest person to be awarded a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award for his 15 year collaboration with the Allman Brothers Band, for whom he was a member from 1999 until their last shows in 2014.
With Tedeschi Trucks Band, Susan and Derek have traveled countless miles to bring their music to audiences around the world. With a large catalog that spans rock, blues, jazz, and even country, no setlist is ever the same, leaving their ever-growing fan base of all-ages returning again and again for electrifying performances. In the fall of 2023, Tedeschi Trucks Band played a pair of career-defining arena shows at TD Garden in Boston and sold out Madison Square Garden in New York City. Dubbed “The Garden Parties,” the pair of gigs saw praise from Relix who raved of their “seasoned grace and artistry.”
