The Susan Tedeschi Band

The Susan Tedeschi Band was established in 1993, fronted by American singer and guitarist Susan Tedeschi. The initial lineup included Adrienne Hayes on guitar (including rhythm and slide guitar), Jim Lamond on bass, and Mike Aiello on drums.

In December 1995, the band released their debut album, "Better Days," to a regional audience within the United States. Subsequent recording sessions in 1997, produced by Tom Hambridge, caught the attention of Richard Rosenblatt, who acquired the material for his independent label, Tone-Cool Records. The resulting album, "Just Won't Burn," was released in February 1998, credited solely to Susan Tedeschi.
