CAIN PARK presents
The Derek Trucks Band
August 7

CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, OH =AD The Derek Trucks Band has a rich history of
incredible musical talent.  They will perform at Cain Park=B9s Evans
Amphitheater on August 7 at 8 pm.  Tickets are $15/$13/$11 in advance and
$18/$16/$14 the day of the show.

The Derek Trucks Band has evolved tremendously over the past ten years.
They blend jazz, rock, blues, Latin, Eastern India, and other world music
that can be classified as progressive roots music.  Band leader  Derek
Trucks (guitar) began his musical career at the age of nine, got his first
paying gig at 11 and formed his own band at age 12.  Trucks then began
touring, with his father alongside as his road manager/chaperone, before Th=
e
Derek Trucks Band came into existence in 1994.

The band members are:  Kofi Burbridge (guitar), Yonrico Scott (drums,
percussion and vocals), Todd Smallie (bass and vocals) and Mike Mattison
(lead vocals).  They released their debut album, Landslide, in 1997,
followed by Out of Madness in 1998.  Both albums informed listeners that
there is a lot more to Trucks than his blues guitar prodigy label indicates=
.
In 1999, Trucks was asked to join the Allman Brothers Band to take over
slide guitar duty.  Between performing with both bands, he played more than
365 shows in 2000 and 2001, performing for a combined audience of more than
a million people. =20
