Tedeschi Trucks Band plan to release a new album in early 2016. The 11-piece outfit has been recording the upcoming LP at their own Swamp Raga Studios complex in Jacksonville, FL this spring. The forthcoming album, which marks the band’s first partnership with Concord Music Group, is being produced by Derek Trucks, with songs co-written by Trucks, Susan Tedeschi, Mike Mattison, Doyle Bramhall II and members of the band.

Tedeschi Trucks Band are scheduled to hit the road this summer for their 30-city Wheels of Soul Tour with Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings and Doyle Bramhall II. The group will also play a few more spring shows, including a gig at New York City’s Central Park SummerStage on Monday, May 18.

​Relix currently has a contest underway in which someone will receive two tickets and a backstage meet and greet to the Wheels of Soul Tour date of the winner’s choosing, plus the complete discography of both TTB and Sharon Jones, a signed tour poster and a goodie bag of Wheels of Soul Tour merchandise.
