Songlines, the band's first new studio album in nearly four years, signals the DTB's arrival at a spiritual plateau after a decade long journey of musical discovery. While 'Songlines' embraces the group's big-eared love of rock, jazz, blues, Latin and world music, it is unquestionably their most cohesive album to date. This landmark recording is the next step in the bold and fascinating musical evolution of The Derek Trucks Band. It's the first DTB studio offering to showcase the straight-up band, direct and pure and working-as-one, striking an uncanny balance between the power and mystery of the group's transcendent live performances and the coherent focus of a beautifully conceived and realized studio production.
