The 12-piece Tedeschi Trucks Band rolled through San Antonio Saturday night, treating the crowd to an uplifting set of blues, rock and soul that highlighted its individual members within a larger sonic tapestry.
Tedeschi was riding the wave of a budding solo career, on the rise with solo albums that had critics comparing her to Bonnie Raitt. In 2010, Tedeschi and Trucks combined their respective solo acts and called it … well, you know. The set built to that moment, which itself took listeners back to the dawn where the world began via a drum breakdown between Tyler Greenwell and Isaac Eady. But the delight is in the journey. You can’t just walk out and drop something like that on the audience, ya know?
Acoustic guitarist-vocalist Mike Mattison got his chance to step forward on “Fall In,” which allowed Trucks to drop tasteful licks over the bouncy, Beatles-flavored chord progression. His guitar work complimented, rather than competed with, Mattison’s soulful voice.Great lead playing is often synonymous with being able to mimic the subtleties of the human voice, and Derek Trucks nailed that repeatedly.
