Shot Notes
Happy New Year 2024. What I am looking forward to most this year is the return of one of my favourite bands to Australia. This is Tedeschi Trucks Band putting on an awesome performance on the Crossroads stage at the 2016 Byron Bay Bluesfest. Husband and wife team of Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks here with saxophone player Kebbi Williams.
Imagine two smooth blues guitars jamming together, while they evoke the kind of atmospheric sounds Knopfler would be proud of, wrap these harmonies in the soulful depth you can only get from gospel backing singers, fill the backstage with duelling drummers, mix in a Hammond Organ and some New Orleans Horns and the sweet blues sound they make is world-class.

UPDATE: After 8 long years the band will return to the festival in Easter 2024, tickets are available via the Bluesfest Website.
Great band, can’t wait for Bluesfest
Awesome!
