In 2011 Tedeschi Trucks Band, the 11-piece group led by the husband-wife team of Derek Trucks and Susan Tedeschi, debuted with the album Revelator. Within a few months the group had proven themselves to be one of the hottest, most uplifting acts on the road. In 2012 they won a Grammy for Best Blues Album of the year, while Trucks himself, along with TTB bandmate Oteil Burbridge, were honored with lifetime Grammys for their membership in The Allman Brothers Band.
Today Tedeschi's vocals and Truck's guitar-work are front-and-center as in the beginning, yet have become more intuitively inter-twined. Onstage they exhibit an interplay on the level of a group with years of experience together, building a song from a tender whisper to a soul-rending scream, improvising with almost telepathic communication between all members.

As the special guest of internationally acclaimed singer Michael Buble, Naturally 7 have been met with standing ovations nightly in Europe, the UK, Canada, Australia and the US. With their rich harmonies, an unbelievable ability to replicate instruments and a strage presence that can be felt in every seat of the house, Naturally 7, the first vocal play group ever, are amazing; charming fans wherever they perform. Every instrument sound is created from the human voice. There are no actual drums, guitars, horns, flutes or any other instrument that is heard when listening to them perform; it's the band members playing each of their vocal instruments.

"Funky...Ebullient...Hot!" - The New York Times.
Fusing Afro-Cuban rhythms with jazz, Mezcla's music is a genuine celebration of the culture and musical roots of the Pearl of the Antilles. A ray of Havana sunshine that inspired Carlos Santana to call them "the cleanest, freshest water I have ever tasted!" Mezcla brings together several veteran masters with some the best of young players on the scene today. The all-star quintet includes conga master and Afro Cuban babala priest Octavio Rodriguez, the celebrated super-percussionist El Capitan, veteran bass-monster Jose Hermida and multi-instrumental wizard Julio Valdez, as well as guitarist and band leader, Pablo "Mezcla" Menendez. Mezcla's music has been described as "an extraordinary celebration of Cuba's dance and song... infused with the most electrifying elements of Afro-Caribbean heritage." (allaboutjazz.com)
