Tedeschi Trucks Band Monday, November 3 In just three years, this 11-member collective led by husband-wife duo Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi has taken its roots-rich musical mix to audiences across the globe and become a proven musical powerhouse. Driven by Trucks' signature slide-guitar sound (he also happens to be the guitarist in the Alman Brothers Band) and Tedeschi's honey-tohusk voice, TTB delivers an electrifying blend of blues, soul, jazz, and rock. Featuring two harmony singers, a three-piece horn section, keyboards, bass, and a pair of drummers, TTB disproves the adage “less is more” while building a devoted following of fans and critics alike.

Thursday, November 13
The eldest son of Bob and Rita Marley, Ziggy began his musical career performing with his legendary father and siblings. He has since forged his own original path with Grammy Award-winning albums such as Love Is My Religion and his unique children’s project Family Time. Ziggy’s easygoing message encompasses themes of love, responsibility, unity, and freedom, in positive tunes that resonate with die-hard Marley fans while introducing today’s younger generation to reggae.
With unparalleled physical ability, the remarkably athletic dancers of Pilobolus push the human body to its outermost limits. Artfully combining movement, acrobatics and jaw-dropping, outside-of-the-box invention, the company erects human structures on stage that are “closer to sculpture than dance” (Newsweek). After more than 30 years, Pilobolus continues to wow audiences with one of the most popular and varied repertories in dance.
