REVELATOR is a brand new power-house tribute band based in Chicago, dedicated to honoring the Grammy-winning music of Tedeschi Trucks Band with authenticity, soul, and impeccable musicianship. This production aims to recreate every detail from a real TTB performance - everything from the song arrangements, music equipment, visual aesthetics, and expansive ever changing catalog will appeal not only to die-hard TTB fans, but also to fans of Chicago’s thriving blues and jam band community. Led by Sophie Hafer and Zach Avery, their experience helps shape the band’s vibrant, artistic, and younger direction, aiming to appeal to a more diverse audience than many other tribute bands. Already known for their striking similarities to Susan Tedeschi and Derek Trucks, this band sets a high musical standard to execute a show that not only resembles Tedeschi Trucks Band, but is musically unmatched. Revelator is supported by a super group of top tier Chicago players, including Brother John Kattke and Todd Lazar, with arrangements provided by Alex Francois of The Australian Pink Floyd Show. This highly orchestrated tribute show delivers an energetic and immersive experience to the audience.
