TEDESCHI TRUCKS BAND COMES TO ROSE MUSIC CENTER - Cincinnati Event

Rolling across America on a sizzling summer run, Tedeschi Trucks Band's "Wheels of Soul" tour brings the Grammy-winning, 11-piece blues-rock dynamo together with soul sensation Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, and acclaimed guitarist Doyle Bramhall II, for a not-be-missed show this summer.

Combining inspired Memphis soul with post-war electric blues and classic songcraft into an award-winning sound, Tedeschi Trucks Band has captured the admiration of both concert audiences and critics worldwide. Formed in 2010 with a spirit of adventure that saw Tedeschi and Trucks shelve their equally successful solo careers, Tedeschi Trucks Band has quickly become the vanguard of modern roots music.  TTB has already earned a Grammy for its debut album, Revelator, followed with a dynamic live double disc, Everybody's Talkin,' and most recently released Made Up Mind.  Driven by Trucks, #16 of the top 100 Guitarists of All Time (Rolling Stone), and Tedeschi, blessed with a voice that passionately delivers a range of powerful R&B belters to gentle ballads, the group enlists two drummers, two vocalists, a three-piece horn section, bass, and a multi-instrumentalist keyboard player for what is a greater-than-the-sum-of-its-parts collective. 

Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings have been hailed as one of the leading forces in the revival of classic soul and funk. The band has traveled the world for more than a decade, blowing minds with their electrifying live performances and their raw, hand-crafted studio recordings. The Brooklyn based 11-piece group delivers sharp, danceable funk grooves, impassioned singing and sweet soul hooks that stay in your head for days on end.  The group is touring behind it's sixth album under the renowned independent Daptone label, 2014's Give the People What They Want, which was recently honored with a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Album. The prolific power-house and survivor that she is, Sharon Jones has fully recovered from a 2013 cancer diagnosis and bounced back with one of the biggest years of her career, filled with milestone accomplishments and a renewed energy for life.

Doyle Bramhall II is well known for his extraordinary guitar work, but also as a distinctive vocalist, composer and producer.  Just 18 when he was recruited by Jimmie Vaughan to play with the Fabulous Thunderbirds, two years later Doyle co-founded the Arc Angels with Charlie Sexton and Stevie Ray Vaughan's rhythm section: Chris Layton and Tommy Shannon.  So impressed with Doyle too, Eric Clapton invited Bramhall to join Clapton's group full-time and their association flourished. Collaborations with such as artists as Sheryl Crow, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Elton John, Gary Clark Jr., Erykah Badu, and Gregg Allman have kept Doyle highly in-demand. He is now completing his fourth solo album, launching the next chapter of his musical journey.
