Tedeschi Trucks Band kicked off their annual fall residency at New York's Beacon Theatre on Friday evening, offering their first of six performances over nine nights at the famed venue where the Allman Brothers Band used to similarly hold yearly court.
TTB opened the show, which marked the Beacon debut for bassist Brandon Boone, with the first track from their most recent full-length EP, Signs, "Signs, High Times," followed by the title track from their just-released EP, High & Mighty. Set one also featured the band's recently debuted cover of Elton John's "Border Song" and band staples like "Hard Case," "Keep On Growing" (from Derek and the Dominos' Layla and Other Love Songs, which TTB covered in full with Trey Anastasio at last month's LOCKN' Festival) and the set-closing "Shame."
The second frame kicked off with "Don't Let Me Slide" followed by a nod to the Allmans, "Don't Keep Me Wonderin'" and featured a couple of TTB's favorite covers, Sleepy John Estes' "Leavin' Trunk" and Freddie King's "Have You Ever Loved a Woman" (also from Layla). The set closed with another duo of staple original tunes, "Made Up Mind" and "Bound for Glory," before the group wrapped up night one with an encore of Joe Tex's "Show Me."
Check out the full setlist below, along with fan-shot video from last night. Tedeschi Trucks Band return to the Beacon Theatre stage tonight for round two.
