If you only heard her singing voice, you would never in a million years believe this was the same person. Her speaking voice is so delicate and sweet, while her singing voice exudes pure raw power and strength. One of my favorite singers of all time.
Yes, I have always loved one song on her earlier album that ended with a real growl, the applause and a sweet little "Thank you!" from her!! Loved her and all performers on the Jeff Beck tribute!!
Yes, but she can sing delicately as well. She is a true vocal genius. Been a fan since the jump. Huge Allman fan and my musical taste spread from there. Derek, Warren, Susan, and the beautiful musical tree just kept growing.
Derek seems so quiet and serious on stage that I didn't expect him to be so talkative. Seems like a great guy. And I've always loved Susan. God bless them both.
Susan sounds so soft-spoken with such a light, reserved voice…it’s amazing to hear her belt the blues out on stage or on the albums. She’s a world-class powerhouse, and the band is a force of nature!
They are perfect examples of humans. Humble, soulful, empathetic but most of all incredible, beautiful people. We should all strive to reach their standard
I think Derek talked more in this interview than all the others I’ve seen put together. They are a wonderful couple, they really do compliment each other.
This is what the people who truly respect music look like. Absolutely no self-inflated ego whatsoever. People who just want to explore the depths of this musical ocean, and taking us mere mortals to show the treasures at the bottom. And I'm sure all the band members are also very down to earth too, because similar minds attract each other. And it might sound mystic, but from personal experience - your psych does seep into the music you create and makes the listener feel those emotions for themselves.
Catherine S. Todd - This "internet thang" has brought forth past talent, artists have recreated gems for us now with powerful projection into future from all genres. How good is that?!
I am in my 50s and consider myself to have an eccletic taste in music, but for whatever reason, I didn't stumble across this band until relatively recently. I saw them play at Wembley in Feb 2020 and it was one of the best live performances I have ever seen. The chemistry displayed on stage that night, is apparent also in this interview. They love each other and they love music. Beautiful to watch
If I had to sum this interview up in one word it would be "mature". They are seriously committed not only to the music (which, unless you're deaf, is obvious) but to each other and the entire organization they have created. Seeing them admire and compliment all of the above warms my heart. Maturity is often overlooked but always appreciated.
I have had the pleasure of seeing both Susan and Derek separately before they joined forces. What they have created can only be described as classic big band music in a modern style. Incredibly beautiful, full of harmonies, that becomes infectious. Can't wait to see you again at Artpark.
Today I fell in love. And it was with these two people. I just stumbled upon their tiny desk gig and what a baptism of fire that was! What an amazing relationship they have. Absolute respect and admiration for each other. In 5 hours they've taught me incredible things about music and they've taught me that a real relationship is a collaboration and not just a co-exsistance. Thank you so much
since my 19 year old left himself logged in - I'm going to post in his name - because he slipped into the end of your 2015 show in Savannah after he got off his job simply to give me a ride home...and texted me from the back of the venue - "MOM - you didn't tell me it was this kind of music!!! " He was hooked, and your music broadened his perspective of how jazz meets blues meets his musical experiences. Thank you!
I went to their show in Amsterdam this evening. Fantastic show and yes there were a lot of 50+ audience. I thought I was at the wrong concert😊. The age group of the audience was diverse like Derek says in the interview. The drummers were awesome. Never heard anything like it before. Even from a distance you could feel the connection they had. Well done!🤗🤗🤗
Loved this interview. I just can't get enough of them. They are hands down my favorite band. I love their music philosophy and how they bring that to light. I love hearing them grow and passing that growth on to us as listeners. Just an all around great vibe. And they seem like nice people too. Nice to see they have taken control of the production of their own music. It shows in the final product. Keep up the great work. I'll buy the albums and come to the shows for as long as they are putting it out there.
These two are really living the dream. To love your work and the people you do it with is such a huge blessing. Big fans of them just as people. Very solid
The blues and jazz are at the heart of all great modern music. The TTB does such a great job blending those styles and others in their music. It is an absolute pleasure listening to their music! Thank you Susan and Derek for keeping great music alive and making life more bearable!👍💖🎸😎
Fine interview. You allowed Both of them to fully have their say. As a result, I learned so much about the music they play and the whole band. A non-intrusive interviewer like this one can be so effective. Again, thank you.
I think that , more importantly, they give one another full op to speak. They are great musicians and the call and response extends to their relationship.
Great Interview....Interviewer let these two just talk from the heart....They shared so much great personal and interpersonal experience .....thank you.
Amazing collaboration of human beings, such a model for relating and expressing really just about anything. I actually teared up. Inspiring. I play their music on my bike rides, singing along - joyful times.
What a great phylosophy for a band, family and experience. Great ful for the way they pay homage to the past. That's uncommon and a lesson in humility. Great sounds. Thanks 💪🙏😑💡
I absolutely love this band and am struck by their soul, emotion and musicality. This band is water tight and the real deal. After hearing this interview, I truly appreciate how genuine and loving they are and why the band is what it is. In my opinion they are one of the greatest American bands to ever exist and I can never get enough of their music. Long Live TTB!
My heart swells when I see these two. I've known Derek since he was 9 years old playing with us local adult (ish) musicians at Magnolias YST in Jacksonville. An old soul and a kind heart with a maturity well beyond his years. I'm happy for them I wish them well and continued success.
I lived in Jax during that time and used to see that little blond haired kid tearing up the slide with the local bands, as well as with Buddy Guy. Love to see how he turned out to be such a humble, down to earth guy.
Derek you rock man !!! Susan, I could listen to you throughout eternity !!! I love your voice !!! The two of you make,in my opinion, an excellent duo !!! I hope that you love each other forever… Keep on rockin !!!!!
Had the privilege to see this amazing band a couple of months ago. One big collaborative group of the best musicians I've seen in decades. No way to label their music. Just pure talent and no ego! So rare today. You can tell they love what they are doing.
I only watch their interviews so I can hear her speak with a higher tone voice than when she sings. Always blows my mind. And Derek loves to talk, so it's very refreshing!
When men and women have such a connection professionally and personally like these two, it warms the heart! Much success to these wonderfully talented people. You're a gift to us! God bless ya'll!
This is one of the more intelligent, articulate and informative interviews I have heard from entertainers. No ego; Respect for each other and the fellow musicians; Incredible talent. These two are the total package! And by the way, their music is pretty good too!!!
Also saw the show last night in Sydney. Awesome. DT is a wizard with the slide and Sue sang her heart out. Their rendition of Midnight in Harlem was sublime. This band is right up there with the best there is.
Derek is a Righteous dude. Susan is a Righteous lady. Their approach and their work speaks to this fundamental value, and guides a professionalism and respect for the music that is unparalleled!
This is the perfect interview. You don't have an interviewer getting in the way. It's great to see these two carry on the roots of music from so long ago. Yep, THE GOOD STUFF. It's great to see they are so happy. It's a great recipe for continued success.
Derek seems to deeply respect all forms of the word "listen." My observation is this helps him professionally, but, more importantly, personally in how he is as a husband, father, and band mate among the richly talented. It forms his genuineness. Susan and Derek complement each other so well. She touches one's soul. What a couple of sincere people.
That statement about being married and your mate is in the band with you is so correct. Music is so challenging and marriage is too. With respect and love it can work. Love this band. Thanks Austin City Limits for their interview. I love watching Austin City Limits. I've learned about so many artist because of your concerts series over the many years.
Every time you hear their stuff, recorded or live, it's fresh. The interplay between the members of such a large band is crucial and they all, vocalists and players, are on the same wavelength. There's a magical, inspiring element here and you can't walk away without feeling uplifted. It's bloody amazing! It's great that there's so much footage on the web. Every performance is different and I can't get enough.
So true. I’ve been seeing them for years and it’s always so good. That’s partly because Derek really loves jazz and knows how to improvise line a jazz artist at the highest level. And then there is Indian inspired Sitar music. Such depth as a musician.
Wow..so this is how to love and respect a person..so much give in these two fabulous people...so beautiful to see this loving couple.. so nice...Did they say 'surrender'...wow
This guy was nice enough to let me come up and play with him and his band in 99 at the telluride blues festival. Great guy, great band and one of the best moments of my life.
It's so refreshing to see Derek, who is a humble master of the guitar, being willing and open to shelving his personal fame for the benefit his music, the band and the hero's who came before him. He's so grateful and brilliant all rolled up into one. Someone I would want my kids to look up to and respect for all of what he has to offer to the people and the band around him. A true BEACON!
This is a wonderful candid interview. I've seen them separate before they met.I have yet to see their new band.They have some great goals that will open eyes and ears to audience to music that they may never ventured into.They seem like they were made for each other. A year young happy married talented couple. Thank you for this post.Their words were well said and respectful.
"Real music does have an audience" Damn right brother especially when it's played by such a tight band. Keep it going you guys work hard at your craft - I've been to countless shows by you guys and have had a great experience at all of them.
You people range thru some of the best artists and music this world has ever seen , with great heart and soul. With respect and reverence . You are a very important and much loved band.
I appreciate the positive vibe that comes from these folks, bringing people together with their passion for music, we are all here for a reason, It's clearly obvious what that reason is for the Tedesky Trucks Band!
If you only heard her singing voice, you would never in a million years believe this was the same person. Her speaking voice is so delicate and sweet, while her singing voice exudes pure raw power and strength. One of my favorite singers of all time.
Yes, I have always loved one song on her earlier album that ended with a real growl, the applause and a sweet little "Thank you!" from her!! Loved her and all performers on the Jeff Beck tribute!!

Derek seems so quiet and serious on stage that I didn't expect him to be so talkative. Seems like a great guy. And I've always loved Susan. God bless them both.
best band
Same here....🌿🌸🌿
Nice to see the ❤️ between the two.
That's exactly what I felt. I was pleasantly surprised how vocal he really is 😂
That's what I thought. Such a beautiful, talented couple.
Susan sounds so soft-spoken with such a light, reserved voice…it’s amazing to hear her belt the blues out on stage or on the albums. She’s a world-class powerhouse, and the band is a force of nature!
They are perfect examples of humans.
Humble, soulful, empathetic but most of all incredible, beautiful people. We should all strive to reach their standard
Hallelujah
Well said 👏
agree
Perfectly worded. Love it.
Your comment is spot on if you don't love these two and their music it's you not them
What an incredible couple/band. The musical aptitude of their children has to be out the roof.
These two are the first family of music today. I love their band and their music.
I think Derek talked more in this interview than all the others I’ve seen put together. They are a wonderful couple, they really do compliment each other.
The way they look at each other when playing and now,, respect and love so apparent. Love watching them❤️
Love you two. Love your whole band. When I first heard Midnight in Harlem, I was sold. You all are salt of the earth, precious people.
Great song! I am with you sister!
At the age of 60 I have got myself new idols. Come back to Sweden asap
nice nice words. I coudn't agree more :-)
@@frankierodriguez8661 isn't it wonderful when hearts agree?
@@graciegolden2290 absolutely
I love how the give props to everyone in the band it's not just about them.
This is what the people who truly respect music look like.
Absolutely no self-inflated ego whatsoever. People who just want to explore the depths of this musical ocean, and taking us mere mortals to show the treasures at the bottom.
And I'm sure all the band members are also very down to earth too, because similar minds attract each other. And it might sound mystic, but from personal experience - your psych does seep into the music you create and makes the listener feel those emotions for themselves.
These two are just terrific! Restored my faith in popular blues and real musicians. Hallelujiah!
Catherine S. Todd - This "internet thang" has brought forth past talent, artists have recreated gems for us now with powerful projection into future from all genres.
How good is that?!
talent.. humility.. chops.. they have it all.. love these guys..
We are the lucky ones guys your band is so special
“Best music comes from great collaboration” No truer words are spoken... beautiful!!
what a great interview. love this couple and their music.
I am in my 50s and consider myself to have an eccletic taste in music, but for whatever reason, I didn't stumble across this band until relatively recently. I saw them play at Wembley in Feb 2020 and it was one of the best live performances I have ever seen. The chemistry displayed on stage that night, is apparent also in this interview. They love each other and they love music. Beautiful to watch
I'm in my 60's and was fascinated by the music which I only discovered in the last 8months or so, lovely stuff !!
I'm 61 and also discovered them recently,can't get enough!
I think many of us heard their anyhow song in part on the Chevy equinox commercial
If I had to sum this interview up in one word it would be "mature". They are seriously committed not only to the music (which, unless you're deaf, is obvious) but to each other and the entire organization they have created. Seeing them admire and compliment all of the above warms my heart. Maturity is often overlooked but always appreciated.
What a heartening interview of two lovely people. And a great contribution from them in the Jeff Beck tribute concert in May.
I have had the pleasure of seeing both Susan and Derek separately before they joined forces.
What they have created can only be described as classic big band music in a modern style.
Incredibly beautiful, full of harmonies, that becomes infectious.
Can't wait to see you again at Artpark.
Saw them in Birmingham, so awesome !!! 2 drummers, wind instruments, stand out guitar, phenomenal lead singer !!!!
I love this band because it is not easy to find bands today that sing with real voices, play real instruments, being real real, thanks for that
I just saw the Tedeschi Trucks band last night at the Mohegan Sun Arena and I am still smile and dancing! :-) LOVE THEM!
Today I fell in love. And it was with these two people. I just stumbled upon their tiny desk gig and what a baptism of fire that was!
What an amazing relationship they have. Absolute respect and admiration for each other. In 5 hours they've taught me incredible things about music and they've taught me that a real relationship is a collaboration and not just a co-exsistance.
Thank you so much
This combination of talent is amazing. These two really know how to make great music. Thanks so much.

Totally agree and well said. My favorite band hands down.
Many blessings to Susan and Derek. They are awesome and inspiring!
What a great couple making beautiful music!
I saw them twice live. So gifted and very humble. They make such great music.
These two are really living the dream. To love your work and the people you do it with is such a huge blessing. Big fans of them just as people. Very solid
The best group to come a long in a while !
they are a revolution of what music should still be be - the collaboration of the 60's & 70's is still living- thru them
Thank God for Joe Cocker & Mad Dogs & Englishmen tour their fundamental inspiration for getting together as a band
The blues and jazz are at the heart of all great modern music. The TTB does such a great job blending those styles and others in their music. It is an absolute pleasure listening to their music! Thank you Susan and Derek for keeping great music alive and making life more bearable!👍💖🎸😎
HERE'S TO DEREK TRUCKS! One of the best listeners to ever grace us with what he hears... TTB Best Band in the Business!💯💖
One of my favorite interviews ever. Just incredible.

Amazing collaboration of human beings, such a model for relating and expressing really just about anything. I actually teared up. Inspiring. I play their music on my bike rides, singing along - joyful times.
My mate introduced me to them when he got tickets to go see them in Glasgow and fell I love with them instantly and Susan’s voice OMG!
A natural love and understanding of music will lift you to a place where these two have got to. They're truly exceptional artists
Wonderful people. As musicians, they're as real as it gets. Great interview.
What a great phylosophy for a band, family and experience. Great ful for the way they pay homage to the past. That's uncommon and a lesson in humility. Great sounds.
Thanks 💪🙏😑💡

In my opinion they are one of the greatest American bands to ever exist and I can never get enough of their music. Long Live TTB!
Music is the universal language of love and y'all play it damn well! I'm hoping to make it to another one of your shows in my lifetime.
If only I could have someone in my life that looks at me the way Susan looks at Derek. I'd die a happy person.
My heart swells when I see these two. I've known Derek since he was 9 years old playing with us local adult (ish) musicians at Magnolias YST in Jacksonville. An old soul and a kind heart with a maturity well beyond his years. I'm happy for them I wish them well and continued success.

What a force of nature these two are... So much inspiration in one room.. Too much.. just too much... Love you guys
OMG she just loves him ♡
Derek you rock man !!!
Susan, I could listen to you throughout eternity !!! I love your voice !!!
The two of you make,in my opinion, an excellent duo !!!
I hope that you love each other forever…
Keep on rockin !!!!!
Music first...that says it all. Love this band. Can't wait to see them live.
You both are awesome.

been with derek and susan since their starts. beautiful people, beautifully intense music and what a beautiful interview
I only watch their interviews so I can hear her speak with a higher tone voice than when she sings. Always blows my mind. And Derek loves to talk, so it's very refreshing!
Great interview. They are true artists playing music with integrity and soul. They are a rare gift, they are not just mere entertainers.
I like how everybody is showcased. This is one the finest group of people/musicians I ever heard. 🙌🙌🙌
When men and women have such a connection professionally and personally like these two, it warms the heart! Much success to these wonderfully talented people. You're a gift to us! God bless ya'll!
I listen toTTB almost every day, my life is better for them.
I love the way she looks at him. Can't fake that shit. And she looks at him like that on stage. It's not choreographed or rehearsed.
I agree, and I have been watching for quite some time...as a ABB fan ...some things just can't be faked
It's a blessing to be married to someone you love and respect. It's evident in the way they look at each other.
Yea she's totally into him!!! Wish I had a woman that into me ...!! LoL
Yes. Man. That's something I always notice with them. Pure love.
You can tell something by the way a Husband & Wife look at each other, so very true. I
This is one of the more intelligent, articulate and informative interviews I have heard from entertainers. No ego; Respect for each other and the fellow musicians; Incredible talent. These two are the total package! And by the way, their music is pretty good too!!!

I love how cool Derek is, he is so serious on stage. you can tell he loves everyone in the band, not to mention his beautiful, talented wife.
Beautiful people they really are God bless..GREAT BAND NOW COME TO AUSTRALIA.
Such an inspiring group of people involved in this project.
Glad you found each other. You have a great work product.
WTF interview brought me here. First time I heard about him. What a player.. and he comes across as very nice humble young man. Great to see that.
Derek is a Righteous dude. Susan is a Righteous lady. Their approach and their work speaks to this fundamental value, and guides a professionalism and respect for the music that is unparalleled!
These are two wonderful souls. How could you not love them?
This is the perfect interview. You don't have an interviewer getting in the way. It's great to see these two carry on the roots of music from so long ago. Yep, THE GOOD STUFF. It's great to see they are so happy. It's a great recipe for continued success.
Hands down, best band I've ever seen live. Not to be missed! Go see 'em!
JUST saw them Warner theater Feb. 15th 2019! BLOWN AWAY!! What a band.
I see them at the Beacon every year in NYC. Total heaven. Such great musicians. Pure joy live.
agree
Derek seems to deeply respect all forms of the word "listen." My observation is this helps him professionally, but, more importantly, personally in how he is as a husband, father, and band mate among the richly talented. It forms his genuineness. Susan and Derek complement each other so well. She touches one's soul. What a couple of sincere people.
What a down to earth couple.......kind.... soft spoken...& respectful.....just great people
Thanks 4 being you, both of u and your team!
That statement about being married and your mate is in the band with you is so correct. Music is so challenging and marriage is too. With respect and love it can work. Love this band. Thanks Austin City Limits for their interview. I love watching Austin City Limits. I've learned about so many artist because of your concerts series over the many years.
This is the greatest music couple by far, easily my favorite big band
Gotta tell ya. I listen to your music and my soul smiles. Always finish with a AHH moment. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH.
Every time you hear their stuff, recorded or live, it's fresh. The interplay between the members of such a large band is crucial and they all, vocalists and players, are on the same wavelength. There's a magical, inspiring element here and you can't walk away without feeling uplifted. It's bloody amazing! It's great that there's so much footage on the web. Every performance is different and I can't get enough.
David Baird - Well said...
So true. I’ve been seeing them for years and it’s always so good. That’s partly because Derek really loves jazz and knows how to improvise line a jazz artist at the highest level. And then there is Indian inspired Sitar music. Such depth as a musician.
@@guyswiggins - Their recently released concert performing the Layla songs is superb.
Wow..so this is how to love and respect a person..so much give in these two fabulous people...so beautiful to see this loving couple.. so nice...Did they say 'surrender'...wow
I love everything about these two. Their souls come thru in their music. I love them.
This guy was nice enough to let me come up and play with him and his band in 99 at the telluride blues festival. Great guy, great band and one of the best moments of my life.
A fantastic interview, obviously a loving couple in a great musical collaboration. May it continue for a very long time . Cheers to you all .
It's so refreshing to see Derek, who is a humble master of the guitar, being willing and open to shelving his personal fame for the benefit his music, the band and the hero's who came before him. He's so grateful and brilliant all rolled up into one. Someone I would want my kids to look up to and respect for all of what he has to offer to the people and the band around him. A true BEACON!
What a fabulous insightful interview to how a band and a couple are fulfilling their dream and sharing their love for life & music.
Thank you 💗
This is a wonderful candid interview. I've seen them separate before they met.I have yet to see their new band.They have some great goals that will open eyes and ears to audience to music that they may never ventured into.They seem like they were made for each other. A year young happy married talented couple. Thank you for this post.Their words were well said and respectful.
I'm going to see them in April my bday week. I can't wait. I'm not a concert goer.
looking soooooo much forward seeing these great people next month in Switzerland!
"Real music does have an audience" Damn right brother especially when it's played by such a tight band. Keep it going you guys work hard at your craft - I've been to countless shows by you guys and have had a great experience at all of them.
Big fan from the get-go. Each of them before Tedeschi Trucks and now together. Awesome people and terrific musicians. My kind of music. Carry on!
I love these guys, real people; real music.
You people range thru some of the best artists and music this world has ever seen , with great heart and soul. With respect and reverence . You are a very important and much loved band.
My favorite two people in music. Talented, consistent, compassionate and beautiful people!
Keep doing your thing y'all. It's special and beautiful. You are on a whole nother plane man. Stay chill and happy
Aaaaaand to come up with so many original songs. These guys are going down in history as AWESOME!!!
They say you should never meet your heroes because they could turn out to be real jerks…. not in this case- I love these two even more now!
Just lovely people-the best
I appreciate the positive vibe that comes from these folks, bringing people together with their passion for music, we are all here for a reason, It's clearly obvious what that reason is for the Tedesky Trucks Band!
