Introducing "Layla Revisited : Live @ LOCKN’", a 2 CD, 3 LP live album of an instant classic concert, with Tedeschi Trucks Band joined by special guests Trey Anastasio and Doyle Bramhall II for a top to bottom performance of the classic Derek & The Dominos album "Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs", live at LOCKN’ Festival on August 24th, 2019. "Layla Revisited : Live @ LOCKN’" will be released everywhere by Fantasy Records on July 16th, 2021.

"Layla Revisited : Live @ LOCKN’" captures Tedeschi Trucks Band at their incendiary best, together with Phish’s renowned guitarist and vocalist Trey Anastasio. Recorded August 24th, 2019, the performance of the legendary album in its entirety was kept secret until the moment the band took the stage. One listen and it’s clear that their surprise performance that night, which also included close collaborator Doyle Bramhall II on guitar, meant something extra special to the astonished fans who were lucky to experience it. From the fiery guitar interplay between Derek and Trey on "Keep On Growing", to Susan’s commanding work on "Have You Ever Loved A Woman", and Derek and Trey’s inspired playing on Hendrix’s classic "Little Wing" and the live set closer "Layla", the musicianship is outstanding throughout. No group of musicians could pay homage to the iconic material better than this.

With liner notes penned by Derek himself, who was named after Derek & The Dominos, and lovely studio duet version of "Thorn Tree In The Garden" from Derek and Susan as a closer, this is a live album for any collection.
