May 2012....Tab took home three Blues Music Awards at the 32nd Annual BMA.... Memphis Tenn. He was awarded with..... B.B. King Entertainer....Best Contemporary Blues Album (Medicine)...and Best Contemporary Blues Male Artist....
Tab has been around much longer than the 90's..I've been listening to him for years and have seen him live more time than I can remember..Always gives 110% at his shows ans is always glad to help upcoming musicians!!!
For those who have just heard of the name Tad Benoit.. I have had the pleasure of hearing him play live in clubs all around New Orleans and I have to tell you all that you MUST see him play live. There is nothing in the world that can make you feel the Muddy Swamp Blues better than seeing and hearing this music played live. Come on down... we got plenty of crawfish and cold beer...
ive know about him for about twenty yrs an I have had the greatest of pleasure of hearing Tab several times in a back woods juk in Tallahassee Fla..with conversations with him during breaks around a bonfire, its somewhat more personal when you get to converse with a man whos so talented an sexy, I just love to hear him talk..he doesnt get around here much anymore..
I was born to the Mountains, and Called to the Bayou ... and I *Fly* and *Slide* between the two, with Direction True. Mr. Tab Benoit Understands that with Precise Accuracy.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why didnt i listen to this sooner.. So soulfull.. My dad passed away last october and we would listen to the open of sons of guns together. He loved the song "shelter me".. Tab Benoit is know one of my greatest singers.. Rest in peace dad!!
~ Loving yr music Tab ~ seen you play in our home town Houma ~ you been playing music a good while but , I can see you only getting better !!! Keep It up ~ and repersenting our home land Louisiana ~ with yr music !!!
Tab is my all time star favorite now he is that good and some..Cant wait to see him in Sept in Vegas. Just cant seem to get enough of him Lawd have mercy!
James Deen Go to Big Blues Bender..its all over the net. If you would have purchased tickets sooner you could have gotten a packaged deal. tickets start at 649.00 At the Riviera Hotel on the 10th-13th of Sept 2015 in Las Vegas...Good luck hope you can make it...He does an awesome show like nobody else!
I am one of those odd fellows that have a very versatile taste in music. zydeco, Cajun, Blues, rock music as well as rock & country rock. Anything from the B-52's to Richard Thompson to Taj Majal and most everything in between. I love Tabs rendition of These Arms of mine by Otis Redding . Regards from Ody Slim
sono un fan del rock blues e del blues e tab benoit e' sicuramente tra i miei preferiti anche se in italia ai più' e' sconosciuto anche perché' penso che non sia mai venuto a suonare in europa. ho tutti i suoi dischi tutti molto belli ma i miei preferiti sono these blues are all mine e wetlands che consiglio vivamente a chi ama il rock blues e non conosce questo fantastico artista
The wife & I are going see him in New Orleans @ House of Blues. 6-28-2019! That's one of my Bayou boy's. He also has a pilot's lic. GRO-JOE from Galliano!
The Souths hidden secret...its taken me 5 yrs to pin down a show at a venue close with good acoustics.....damn good music to cut your teeth on aspiring young guitarists out there!
As a huge Buddy Guy and Freddie King fan. I agree with you 100%. You know it when you hear it. A singer sings a song written by someone else to the best of their ability. Singer, song writer, players are few and far between and they bare their soul. So did Hank Williams and I didnt say Junior or III. Hank Williams crossed over into alter ego, into a character he called Luke the Drifter.
Three TB concerts in as many years. Most recent was 650-mile round trip. Sorta like a blues haj for me. There's just some music that bypasses the brain and goes straight to the heart.
I had never heard of Tab until I watched a youtube interview of Johnny Lang and he said he wished he had the guitar tone of Tab Benoit. I'm so glad I saw that clip
Try swamp blues, I live down here and that's how people around here describe it. Maybe delta blues too but that will take you all the way back to Robert Johnson.
May 2012....Tab took home three Blues Music Awards at the 32nd Annual BMA.... Memphis Tenn. He was awarded with..... B.B. King Entertainer....Best Contemporary Blues Album (Medicine)...and Best Contemporary Blues Male Artist....
I'm glad people are learning about Tab. He's been burning up the blues in the south for almost 20 years. That man is the soul of south Louisiana.
The best blues line ever written: “There’s a sound with no name, when a far away train - cries like an unloved child”.
Written by Buddy Miller and his wife, but the arrangement was flat and it was written as a country song!
Tab has been around much longer than the 90's..I've been listening to him for years and have seen him live more time than I can remember..Always gives 110% at his shows ans is always glad to help upcoming musicians!!!
Why Oh why isn't this guy world famous? Why oh why do I have to suffer through Niki Manaj, when this is out the world. You rock dude!!!!!!!!!
+zazen108 because no one enjoys bluegrass ,Cajun,swamp pop,or blues anymore... its sad people don't like this music or as many people still do
+zazen108 The good stuff isn't for everybody to understand and appreciate dude. Thanks yourself for being among the happy few ;-)
Amen!!!
+zazen108 This guy is pure blues!!
+zazen108 i agree %1000 percent. i rather hear this type of vibe at my work place all the time brotha' man instead of that Nikki Garbaj anyday

you brought tears to my eyes Tab. I am living that song.
Yeah - it sure does hit home.....unfortunately. I can't quit listening to it.
Are you better now?
One of the best blues songs ever.
Agreed
robin32859 agree
As a black man who loves and lives for the blueS.....this cat has it.........
Dude this guy's so Cajun you can smell the swamp on him!
I'm proud to be from Houma Louisiana
I'm in Albemarle North Carolina right now and I miss it so much
I have the blues about it
Hey my brother where you from if you don't mind me asking
how can one man have so much heart and soul. the whole band is so perfectly put together.
Tab Benoit seers the core of your soul with his music! An incredible entertainer!
Sons of Guns brought me here and I'm staying for the whole tour!! GREAT GREAT MUSIC right here. Thanks for sharing!
Just found Tab Benoit in a random blues playlist and holy shit am I hooked. Reminds me a bit of SRV.
check out the album Debbie Davies ,Tad Benoit and Kenny Neal !
Really, wow SRV. I would have never connected those two but we each have our own ears. I dig it
@@cheesetoast8312 they certainly both have earned the same level of respect. So there's that :)

I shared my tray of crawfish with Tab one time at a biker rally in New Orleans in 1996. Just me and him shootin` the shit. He put on a great show.
Beautiful!! 61 years of age and I have been listening from get go.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why didnt i listen to this sooner.. So soulfull.. My dad passed away last october and we would listen to the open of sons of guns together. He loved the song "shelter me".. Tab Benoit is know one of my greatest singers.. Rest in peace dad!!

I first saw him 17 years ago, and was blown away! I am going on Jan 20th to finally see him again. This man is really awesome!

This is good in more ways than words can describe. I thought I was mad or depressed, man I just had the blues and I got good company with me.
I absolutely love this song...it's very powerful and full of emotion. What beautiful prose!
You just feel the "pain" in his guitar. Awesome. Thanks for posting. BTW More please.
Holy hell, what a voice!
I think so too.
Shelah Cochran awesome guitar and voice
Wounderfull sound.
Fantastic Lilly.

Tab has been around since the 1990's; he is amazing live...try and catch a show he travels all over the US all year long.
Powerful Stuff!!!! I FEEL every word and every note!
Soulful. Thank you.

Incredible! I love it.
Thx for uploading. Its almost that time.
Wow, this guy can sing and wail with the greats! My great thanks also to Sons of Guns for opening my eyes to a new great blues artist.
The Souths hidden secret...its taken me 5 yrs to pin down a show at a venue close with good acoustics.....damn good music to cut your teeth on aspiring young guitarists out there!
sounds like Hank Williams and Aretha Franklin had a child...
Man this jam drives deep down into my soul 😆
Lovin it !!!!
Amazing Musican, Epic In Every Sence!
Love this song. ♡
I enjoy the sound of this song.

well i have to thank the tv show sons of guns for introducing me to tab. love it
Cant wait to go him play Saturday 7/15/17 at Fitzgeralds in Houston
So amazing. I tried listening to some pop music a while ago, big mistake. I had to listen to some Benoit to cleanse my ears. Lol.
sooo goooodd....
you can tell where Johnny Lang got some of his influence from.
I had never heard of Tab until I watched a youtube interview of Johnny Lang and he said he wished he had the guitar tone of Tab Benoit. I'm so glad I saw that clip
Yes it is…..❤
@parrotpowers i was there also...it really was a great show
My, my, my!! Love this song and Mr. Benoit' voice. Will search for more. Is he well known in Texas?!
Is there a bad lyric in this whole song? The answer is no.
Delta Blues
If you don't love this you haven't a soul.
❤❤❤
want to hear some more of this subgenre but i cant figure what kind of blues it is... very nice tho!
Try swamp blues, I live down here and that's how people around here describe it. Maybe delta blues too but that will take you all the way back to Robert Johnson.
Black girl listening 🙌🏾
Demetria Goines he’s got a lot of great songs. Look up Tab Benoit “If thats what i have to do. “Darkness” or “Midnight Train”
Do you have an AMX ? My first car was a 74 Javelin
Yes. I own a 69 AMX. Big Bad Green 390 Go-Pack. All original.
Gimme my Dobro and metal picks and lez piss off the neighbors!! Damn good music!
I don't care where he;\'s from He has got it Wow
@choppersallie SOUNDS LIKE THE BBC, SAW HIM AT THE ''MOON''
I have loved him for years. Even asked him to marry me.
The Gators Lonesome!
Damn, he's good.
ONE OF THE BEST!!!!!
I can't even comment on what his music does to certain receptive individuals. I just know that it occurs.
Blues and robin trower white boy soul
what kind of blues is this?
cajun blues most folks call it..but blues is blues to me
+Quentin G this statement could not be any more perfect. "blues is blues"
Right...and this guy is carrying on the tradition Cajun style!
I got 2 words..."dam awesome" !!!
@strtlcdteen Power Of The Pontchartrain
saw tab in person lately, damn i have never heard a guitar played like he does... wow he is good... must see him if u can..
@RamblinAMX390 sons of guns
