Tab Benoit

Tab Benoit is one of today's most creative and skilled Blues artists putting it out there for YOU every night of the week, People! The feeling is in his soul and his freely giving it to you, all you have to do is show up.

18 CD's, 2 bands, numerous awards, nominations wazoo, an outstanding 13 year running festival of his own and the man and his band are still rippin' it UP 250 nights a year from coast to coast. How does he do it, you might ask? What is with the crazy shirts? They must be his cape, right, sure? Yea! Well, maybe one of my favorite songs' lyrics will explain some, "Let Love Take Control, " "If it means something to you...then it's got to happen...ain't no gettin' around it." The whole song is epic. Tab writes, plays, arranges, manages with gusto.

Mr. Benoit is also very skilled at bringing people together like his fellow musicians on his CD's, which are phenomenal! He started as a drummer and he plays his guitar like a percussion instrument at times. His voice is incredible, and the ballads, wow! Wait until you hear, the CD, The Sea Saint Session, it's one of my favorites, get it! OK, listen to his version of "Something's Got to Go, on Power of the Ponchartrain, get it, AMAZING!

Now, when are you coming to VOW, Tab's annual free festival, always Columbus Day weekend? The music is hot, as well as the Cajun food. Tab plays all weekend. He's trying to bring awareness about the devastating loss of wetlands in South Louisiana.

You simply have to hear any one of Tab's songs once and you will understand every word, but music is meant to be heard live. Tab is also a comedian and an incredible performer. It's all Tab radio, all the time in my place and he's coming to a theatre near you, I guarantee it! This could be YOUR lucky night! You'll be hooked for life, and dance 'till the VOW COWS go Houma!!!! <3!

I have now seen Tab Benoit three times in different venues in Chicago and have been thoroughly entertained, even enthralled, each time. His soulful voice and virtuoso guitar playing skills combine with the other members of his band for a very lively, inspired performance.
If you are used to seeing commercial acts in large arenas, do yourself a favor and see a real musician in an intimate setting where you can actually hear the music.
Tab has skills that blow away nearly any performer in the music industry yet you can see him in amazingly small venues for a very reasonable price tag. He also does an amazing job interacting with the crowd and regularly takes song requests (warning: he will call you out for not knowing the name of the song).
At every performance, Tab plays songs you can dance to, songs you can cry to, and in between songs displays his wit and penchant for telling jokes and stories to keep the crowd engaged.
I have paid maybe $20 each time I've seen him, and I would say I got about $100 worth of great music and vibes.
GO SEE THIS GUY!!!!!!!
Want a taste of his playing skills before buying a ticket? Check out "hot tamale baby" at the birchmere.

Tab Benoit's show is full of energy and passion for the blues! The man can make the guitar smoke, talk and sing! So much fun to watch, listen to and dance your butt off to as well! I really enjoyed Tab and his humble way of backing up the other guitarists playing with him. He played drums for Eric Johnson who is a wonderful musician and together they are priceless! Tab also brings young talent on stage to sample a taste of the big leagues and the young man stood toe to toe and played his heart out on that stage! You could see him savoring every moment and taking snapshots in his mind to pull out and review for studying purposes at a later date!

I love the show and will pay to see Tab and purchase his music anytime I can! Completely worth the money! Thanks Tab for being you - never, never, ever stop being you!

One more amazing Tab Benoit Show to add to the other Tab Benoit Shows we've seen, and walked away from with another remarkable Memory of his incredible Talent as a Guitar Shreddin, Singer, Song writer, Producer, Musician, with a Bad $#@ Bass Player, and Rock Solid Drummer, that winds up the Three hour show, after watching Tab play Drums for 1 1/2 hours backing up Eric Johanson Screamin Guitar Licks, with Corey Stompin the Bass Guitar for the Three Hour Show !!!!
A Must See Event, over and over again and again !!!
Looking forward to the next time he rolls through Town !!!!
Thanks guys for another incredible Show !!!See Y'all next time !!

High energy, great Cajun blues!
Tab is a funny guy and loves joking with and talking to the crowd during his shows, in addition to putting out great music. Tab always sports his patented, brightly colored button down shirt which never fail to impress. Bassist Corey Duplechin is also high energy and really into the music.
All around great entertainment (comedy show and concert). Tab always takes requests and usually tries to play everything the crowd yells out.
He typically tours with excellent opening acts as well; many of which I've grown to love in their own right after being introduced to their music at a Tab show.

Oh my gosh, what a performance by Tab Benoit and his band.
The show began with Eric Johanson singing and playing his beautiful Paul Reed Smith guitar with Tab playing drums, then followed the next two hours on guitar, singing and playing his heart out!
Tab connected immediately with everyone attending, taking time to talk, take requests, and having fun.
His guitar was on fire! He was on fire! His voice was spot on.
This was a nearly 3 hour pulsating show! He is so good.
Tab Benoit is a MUST SEE blues artist.

Fantastic show! I have seen Tab twice before at the Big Blues Bender in Las Vegas but he seemed to have a little extra in his performance tonight. Tab seemed to really enjoy playing in a cave and he was genuinely surprised when he saw how many hands were raised of those in the audience who were seeing him for the first time. It was well more than half the sold-out crowd. JP Soars was a very good opening act for Tab. Sure hope Tab gets booked again at Cumberland Caverns.

This was our first cmhance to see Tab Benoit luve.. The venue was the Granada theater in Dallas, a smaller venue we like... His opening sone was my favorite sone "Shelter Me".. Fantastic!!! As were all his songs!!
Tab came on at 9:30 and played thru 11:30 with a great wncore of Bring Me My Medicine..
He has good rapport wirh his audience... Definitely ❤️ Tab Benoit and will see him again when we get a chance!

The concert was absolutely fantastic. Tab Benoit is one of the best guitar players I have ever seen and I have seen a lot. It was such a great show. He is very talented and also played drums for two opening acts.
Would see him again and again. Thank You so much for keeping me in touch for his concert. Your App is the Best out there.
