Tab really should be as well known as Steve Ray Vaughn or Eric Clapton or Johnny Winter. Hes the real deal, no artifice and no phoning it in: one guitar, 2 amplifiers, no effects pedals. He tours a lot, especially in the northeast, and if you ever get a chance you really have to go see him play live. He'll knock your socks off, and hes a great storyteller and jokester as well.
@goodun2974 bro you took the words out my mouth tab is the man. He also talks too his fans after he performs and drinks at the venue hes playing at like a regular person he doesn't run off stage out the back door he does a lot for Louisiana hes a humanitarian him and drew brees should link up love them both but tab is pure funny as hell and has more talent in his pinky ring then most artists today. He doesn't even practice at all or warm up so what you see is what you get pure raw talent no effects lots of people dont know this about tab but he doesn't practice at all.. his guitat teacher told his mom im not sure why you keep bringing him he knows more then me there isn't anything i can teach him.. his singing is so amazing i can keep going on tab is my favorite blues artist and guitar player of this era possibly of all time and ive listen too them all.. he doesn't sound like anyone else he writes his own music and amazing music at that. Wow tab is the man-!!!!!
Tab is one of the best guys to do it. He doesn't play with effects pedals and he's played a 1971 Fender Telecaster Slimline. Just a pure soulful musician. Brings that Cajun soul to everything he does. I get lost in this song. Every single time.
Pronounced Ben-wah. My wife and I have seen him play a 1/2 dozen times and we even flew from New England to Louisiana in 2018 to attend the 3 day festival he usually hosts every October on the edge of the bayou in his hometown of Houma, with a mix of local and national performers. Admission to the voice of the wetland's festival is free and the sale of food and drinks funds his foundation to spread awareness of the importance of preserving the bayou swamps and the Delta coastline.
I have seen him in clubs and in festivals several times. Such an awesome blues guitarist and singer. He even did drum solos. I also like when uses guitar for percussion.
The 1st time I took my wife to see him play, she was so blown away that when she found out he hosted a festival every October in his hometown of Houma Louisiana she said " that's it, we have to go"! And so we flew from New England to Louisiana for his 3 day festival!
He’s awesome! his cover of “blues so bad” is 🔥After all his shows you can find his tour bus in the back of the venue and he’s waiting there for his fans with his glass of whiskey and cigar. Really cool guy to talk to and was able to get my CD signed along with my brother as well
I've seen him live twice Harri and plan to see him at the Tampa Bay Blues Festival in April and again in Wilmington 4 days later. Great live performance! I highly recommend his songs Shelter Me and Medicine.
So glad people are seeing this across the pond. We’ve seen this man many times in Dallas. Got a notification he’s about to play at a BBQ joint in Tyler, TX soon
I saw him last summer and man he just gets up there and is on 10 for 2+ hours. A good friend of mine sent him my way and I haven’t looked back! His guitar playing is very much standard blues but he has unique ways of working through scales
He has plenty of incredible songs Darkness is the first song on my relaxing playlist Number 2 on the playlist is Joe Bonamassa Songs name is “stop” Would share more if these together doesn’t kick the stress out of you
The album is by Tab Benoit with Lousiana LeRoux. Check out New Orleans Ladies by LeRoux, one of my all time favorite songs. There is also a cover of New Orleans ladies and this album.
I would see Tab every year in The Blues Tent at The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. It was a yearly event that eventually was ruined by Quint selling it out to corporate sponsorship and interests.
@@rebeccaarseneaux6474 , We live in New England and Tab plays this region fairly frequently. The 1st time I took my wife to see him she was so blown away that we ended up flying to Louisiana and going out to Houma to see him play at the festival he hosts. Anyway I am part French Canadian and so I don't have any problem pronouncing your last name as "R - sun - O"! One of the nurses my wife works with has the same last name as yours anyway.....
You should check out the song Night Train on this album. A real rocker. I've seen Tab a few times and every time was awesome. He didn't even want to be in music but his talent was so great he couldn't help it from what I heard. I was front row at Herman's hideaway in Denver. He broke a strong on his strat and I got it...
I've never seen him playing or photographed with a Strat, he plays a Thinline Telecaster almost exclusively (the wear on the guitar tells the story!). The last time we saw him he broke 3 strings!
He's a Louisiana blues boy to the core. He's been a favourite for about 20 years. So glad someone requested this.
One of the largely unrecognized blues guitarists and singers. A fellow Cajun.
Been listening to Tab for last 35+ years. Hes the real deal. Very soulful, humble, and just a nice guy. I go see him anytime hes within 200 miles.
you cannot go wrong with Tab Benoit, amazing blues player and singer.
He's the real Thang!!
Tab has so many good songs worth checking out. He's been a fav of mine for about 15 years
I can’t say I’ve ever heard of this guy. How is it he’s not more well known. Maybe it’s just me. Mega talented this guy.

You do realize tab started off as a drummer first before he became a guitar player? Hes also a certified pilot. Hes the man really..
Great requests from Adam Dunbar! This song especially is just fantastic as it speaks to my soul. Thank you. Harri adds his great flavor as well. 🌺✌️
Tab is the real deal! And a heckuva nice guy also !! 👍😎👍
Dont know the song 😊☺ Never heard of Tab Benoit 🙃🙂 But love, love the song🥰😍🤩 Thanks Harri

Wow Harri, never heard of this guy but what a talent. Thanks for this one it's a real find !!!
Thanks for reacting to all the great music very few take on.
Great Channel! 🤘
Very nice! I'm not familiar with Tab Benoit, but he'll definitely be added to my Blues playlist. Great voice and great guitar!
He's well worth the add Anne!
Tab's shows are ALWAYS great fun, and he is a great guitarist

One of very few guitar players that doesn't use any pedals just a great person
Got to hang out with Tab a couple times. Such a cool dude and obviously an awesome musician.

Seen Tab a few times...he's amazing.

He's got live videos and he's bad ass. Live
You stumbled upon a badass blues musician. “Ben-Wah”
I saw him in mid 90's, he was awesome then.
He pronounces his name Ben-Wa. This is one of my favorite of the songs he does. No one like him in this generation.
Awesome
Pronounced: ben-wah. He is also the founder of 'Voice of the Wetlands', as a conservationist of the Louisiana wetlands.
I was going to write that but wanted to avoid the inevitable jokes. 😆
That's okay, as you can see, my name is butchered A LOT!
