A love story

Love is right at the beginning of the story of the Tedeschi Trucks Band. In 1999, at a concert as the opening act for the Allman Brothers Band, the American singer and guitarist Susan Tedeschi met the Allmans' then guitarist, Derek Trucks. The two married in 2001 and also merged their respective solo bands in 2010 to form the Tedeschi Trucks Band.

With their first album »Revelator« the Tedeschi Trucks Band won the coveted Grammy trophy for the best blues album in 2012. Even back then, the band consisted of eleven people and flanked the bandleaders' soulful guitar playing with brass and keyboards.

Three more studio albums and various live recordings followed, which further cemented the Tedeschi Trucks Band's reputation as one of the most playful bands in the current blues rock and Americana scene. The best proof of this is the live recording "Layla Revisited", which documents the unique performance of the Derek & The Dominos album "Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs" by the Tedeschi Trucks Band at the Lockn' Festival in summer 2019. The band was supported at the time by Trey Anastasio from Phish.

But then the pandemic came and concerts were out of the question until further notice. Instead, the Tedeschi Trucks Band retreated to their studio in Jacksonville (Florida) and worked out and recorded their multi-part magnum opus “I Am The Moon”. The cycle includes an impressive 24 new songs, spread over four independent albums. Thematically, “I Am The Moon” is inspired by a narrative Sufi poem from the 12th century. Century called “Leila and Majnun”. The story of two unlucky lovers, obsession and isolation was also partly used as a template for Eric Clapton's "Layla".

Since the beginning of June, the Tedeschi Trucks Band has released a new part of its musical narrative every four weeks, the last act of which is »I Am The Moon: IV. Farewell” is now imminent.
