Tedeschi Trucks Band released the new single “Soul Sweet Song.” Written in tribute to late TTB keyboardist Kofi Burbridge, “Soul Sweet Song” appears on the group’s forthcoming album, I Am The Moon: Episode IV. Farewell.
Farewell is the fourth and final chapter in the TTB’s ambitious I Am The Moon album series. The six-song collection is due out via Fantasy on Friday, August 26. An accompanying full-length companion film premieres through Tedeschi Trucks Band’s YouTube channel on Tuesday, August 23. All four I Am The Moon albums, including a deluxe box set, arrive on vinyl September 9 and are currently available for pre-order.
Current TTB keyboardist Gabe Dixon and TTB vocalist Mike Mattison collaborated to write “Soul Sweet Song” in honor of Burbridge. Kofi passed away in February 2019. “Gabe’s lyrics: I feel your rhythm moving me/’Cause your soul’s sweet song’s still singing – that hit me between the eyes,” explained Derek Trucks. Derek’s wife and fellow bandleader, Susan Tedeschi provides lead vocals on the new tune.
