Today, Tedeschi Trucks Band has officially released their latest album, SIGNS, their first record since 2016’s Let Me Get By.
The 11-track album was co-produced by TTB leader and guitarist Derek Trucks along with Jim Scott and Bobby Tis, and includes all original songs which were recorded live on two-inch analog tape at their Swamp Raga Studio. TTB brethren Warren Haynes, Oliver Wood, Doyle Bramhall II, and Marc Quiñones also appear on the record.
As the band notes in a press release, “Signs confronts loss, heartbreak, and politically troubled times with a credence and conviction that puts the group’s undying world-class musicianship and collaborative spirit on full display. It’s a genre-defying collection that runs the gamut from uplifting soulful anthems to bittersweet ballads and driving rock and roll.”
During the recording process, the group lost several of their mentors: Leon Russell, Col. Bruce Hampton, and Derek Trucks‘ uncle and original Allman Brothers Band drummer, Butch Trucks, followed by Gregg Allman later that year.
“How their passing affected me,” Trucks told NPR, “was that there was the wanting to do it right and wanting to carry on whatever parts I learned from them that I could carry on. The music they made was of a special time and place. I’m never going to recapture that stuff, but I’ve certainly been able to take the lessons I learned from them.”
To celebrate the release of Signs, Tedeschi Trucks Band will play an intimate album release show at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on February 20th (Tickets available here). They’ll continue to bring their promotion of the album with tour dates throughout 2019, including a 4-night, 2-weekend residency at Washington, D.C.’s Warner Theater. The sold-out first weekend of the band’s D.C. residency kicks off tonight.
