Last night, Tedeschi Trucks Band closed out their seven-night run at the Beacon Theatre in New York City. After kicking things off on Sept. 29, the band’s final gig landed on Oct. 8 and presented a second set sit-in with Ricky “Red Dirt” Gordon during a take on Dr. John’s “I Walk on Guilded Splinters.” To follow up on their guest sit-in, the band broke into the John Prine staple “Angel From Montgomery,” which bled into a debut cover of Harry Style’s “Sign of the Times,” led by Susan Tedeschi. Watch below.

The Saturday night gig got underway with “Shame” off Signs and was followed by a selection of tunes from the group’s I Am the Moon IV: Farewell on “D’Gary” and “Where Are My Friends?” Then, they moved into The Fall section of I Am the Moon with “Showhow” before working into the night’s first cover, with a take on The Allman Brothers Band’s “Stand Back.” The Fall selections continued with “Yes We Will” before they dipped into their part one, Crescent repertoire on “‘Round The Sun” and “Pasaquan.”

Tedeschi Trucks Band ended the night’s initial set with a cover of Joni Mitchell’s “River.” Then, after a break from the fabled stage, they returned and dove head-first into their second frame on “I Can Feel You Smiling,” followed by “High & Mighty.” After a run-through of their title track, “I Am the Moon,” the band followed with a take on Blind Faith’s “Had to Cry Today” and continued with fan favorite “Midnight in Harlem.” Next up, the night’s guests, Gordon and Jeff “Tain” Watts assisted on a cover of Dr. John’s “ I Walk on Guilded Splinters.”

One of the show’s many high points occurred next when the band took on the Prine classic “Angel From Montgomery,” which flowed into a debut cover of Styles’ emotionally-infused “Sign of the Times.” For the first time take, Tedeschi delivered Styles’ soulful written lyrics. See the complete video below. To follow the joint pairing, they ended the second set with a cover of Bobby “Blue” Bland’s “I Pity the Fool.” Finally, the band landed on a set of covers for the night’s encore, beginning with James Taylor’s 1970 staple “Fire and Run” off the Sweet Baby James LP, and concluding with The Box Tops’ “The Letter.” 

After the band’s massive New York City sweep, they will take a short break from the road before jumping across the pond for a series of European tour dates, beginning on Oct. 17 at Amager Bio in Copenhagen and ending on Nov. 15 at the Bataclan in Paris.
