Unrivaled in their blend of American soul, blues, rock and country, the 12-member Tedeschi Trucks Band is led by the husband and wife team of guitarist Derek Trucks and vocalist/guitarist Susan Tedeschi who have curated and cultivated this family -friendly experience into a highlight of the summer concert season.

Attracting larger audiences each successive year and expanding to new markets, critics hail the Wheels of Soul tour as “nothing short of spectacular,” (Saratogian), celebrating the “life-affirming power of music played with passion, skill and artistry,” (St. Louis Post Dispatch).
