Tedeschi Trucks Band’s Wheels of Soul Tour Ready to Roll

Tedeschi Trucks Band has taken a month off, now geared up and ready to roll into the Wheels of Soul Tour with 25 dates splashed all along the East Coast and as far west as Red Rocks. They have lots more in store for fans as well.

The 12-member Tedeschi Trucks Band just released their sixth album, Signs, earlier this year. And, of course, both Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks have numerous albums to their individual credits before the husband and wife musically joined forces in 2010 (6 and 8, respectively).

The Tedeschi Trucks Band are: Susan Tedeschi, guitar, vocals; Derek Trucks, guitar; Tyler Greenwell, drums; JJ Johnson, drums; Gabe Dixon, keyboards; Mike Mattison, backing vocals; Mark Rivers, backing vocals; Alecia Chakour, backing vocals; Brandon Boone, bass; Kebbi Williams, saxophone; Elizabeth Lea, trombone; and Ephraim Owens, trumpet.

The Wheels of Soul tour again this year hits major amphitheaters, kicking off next weekend with three Florida dates, beginning in Jacksonville Friday, June 28. After shows in Alabama, South Carolina, and North Carolina, the tour heads further north as far as New Hampshire, then heads west with a two-night stop at Red Rocks, finally ending at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta for a pair of shows.

TTB’s musical companions for the tour are Blackberry Smoke and Shovels & Rope. Atlanta’s Blackberry Smoke have worked at taking their hard-edged Southern rock to the next level. Their sixth album, Find a Light, was released last year along with a companion acoustic EP, The Southern Ground Sessions. Blackberry Smoke are: Charlie Starr, vocals, guitar; Paul Jackson, guitar, vocals; Richard Turner, bass, vocals; Brit Turner, drums; and Brandon Still, keyboards. 

Shovels & Rope is the critically acclaimed, award-winning husband & wife duo of Michael Trent and Cary Ann Hearst from Charleston SC. Their Americana roots are showing again on their seventh album By Blood, and Shovels and Rope: The Movie will be out soon!

Trucks is enthusiastic about the tour:

“The motivation and, really, the fun of Wheels of Soul is that we get to bring that spirit of musical camaraderie to a summer crowd. Traveling, being outside, playing music with friends new and old.  We love the limitless energy of this tour.”

The band plays a special show at the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts in Bethel NY on August 18 (Woodstock’s 50th anniversary) along with Grace Potter and John Fogerty. And their six-date Beacon run begins September 27. They also have six November dates in Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas and a very special one-off show at Wembley Stadium in Great Britain next February.
