Tab Benoit--One Foot in the Bayou

Recorded at The Melting Point in Athens Ga. 12-01-2010 with permission.

[@DavidWatters-lx6ff]

Seen Tab several times in Colorado, back in the early years in Denver area then i rifle Colorado a few times when I lived there. great performer what you see is what you get. Better in a small venue.

[@lindakooistra1889]

This lil Thibodeaux named grandma loves this!!!!!!!

[@mymusic2790]

I dont quite understand why MORE ppl arent aware of this amazing man...I absolutely cannot get enough of him and all he stands for (wetlands) There are NO words to describe how his music makes me feel...not just in my soul but down to the marrow in my bones!! GO On Tab with your bad self!

[@MissDaisy1967]

+My music I agree!!!!!! I just saw him two nights in a row and was impressed both nights... his passion, energy and love for the music is just amazing.... I think a person would have to be dead to not pick up on him.. God bless him and may many more learn about this awesome artist.. Isn't it just amazing what he can do on that guitar????

[@jasongarcia9614]

My music my favorite of his whole lotta soul

[@vheth5968]

so agree

[@briansommariva9546]

This guy needs to be on the radio more!!! Wow. If I was his manager, he and Chris Stapleton would be jamming together.

[@gervanleent6125]

Can't agree more! I'm a lucky European to have seen Tab play live. As he's never been to Europe (in my knowledge) I went to see him for the first time in Canada on the Kitchener Blues Festival 2009. He then played in the attic of some restaurant as the outside podia were closed due to severe thunderstorms and a flash that struck on one of the stages! Tabs performance was fantastic as usual. I can't call this guy other than 'Razor sharp'! Hope he once will come over to one of the fantastic festivals we have here in Holland or Belgium.

[@ricardolopez3129]

Who said that white man can't sing the blues? How wrong it turn to be....

[@Mary-kv2hv]

More new blues blood!! Thank you Tab❤....the BLUES MUST NEVER DIE!!!

[@harrysaenz8938]

Living in Texas but my heart is in Louisiana due to music like this. How much more can a man give his fans? Loved his set at NO Jazzfest!!!!!Still got mudd on my shoes!!!!!!

Ain't got nothing to do with color! Tab is a product of his gumbo environment! Which gives us all the opportunity to see and hear a legend in the making !!!!!! Yeah you right!!!!!

[@CGMB777]

[@nickre100]

[@path2304]

You can tell he loves what he does...I love him and his playing. Very talented and a hell of a nice guy..connects so well with his audience.

[@vheth5968]

Because he is real!!!! It's about playing to please not playing to get Fame and Fortune, not that making good is bad, but Blues is his Blood, and brain!!!!

[@MrDirtBoss88]

Tab is one of the only MEN that can give me goosebumps. oooooooohhhhhhhhhh, LOVE this song. my fav. part. 0.00-7.44!

[@Frank00064]

I'm fan of the blues and Tab is my favorite blues musician. Great singer and guitarist.

[@harleydawg8225]

Tab is the master in my book.

[@josephhaddad2919]

I only have one thing to say he's bad to the bone

[@sheilastone6953]

love it! Love it! Oh how I love it!

[@tinamorel6938]

[@johndicapua2412]

ONE FOOT IN THE BLUES ONE FOOT IN COMEDY HIS SHOWS ARE JUST AMAZING ALL AROUND ENTERTAINMENT

[@richarddarcy6945]

Black Water Blues from the best. Born, bred and raised with guitar in his crib. Real Deal without the hype or nose ring..

[@tracychilders8818]

Oh my gosh, can this man play!!!!! He gets down in your soul!!!

[@cailyncook370]

Tracy Childers even better live I saw him on the 16th it was so good video don’t do these videos justice

[@pliccut]

Oh my! I just died and went to blues-rock heaven!

[@katiefryer6700]

Who knew David Cross was such an awesome drummer?

[@brianpaterson2121]

He brill don't ken why people don't mention him more 😎

[@rosebloom864]

Rock it down home!, TAB!!!!🌹🌹🌹💯💯💯🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@frankesposito2182]

The Guy sings Great,...Eric Clapton would like this guy......

[@bluesman841]

Tab Benoit is the shit, hes so enjoyable to see live...a great performer. I would rather see him than Joe Bonamasshole anyday

[@michiganj.3858]

Is that necessary. I'm sure Mr. Benoit would not approve.

[@bluesman841]

actually he might chuckle, he's got a good sense of humor

[@Ladiann]

+Douglas Donato Well Douglas, your statement tells me you obviously don't give credit where credit is due. JB has put in 37 yrs of hard work to entertain fans like me so I would appreciate it if you can't say anything nice about a talent like JB, DON'T say anything at all!!! Both Tab & JB are talented hard working artists in their own genres. Have a little respect how about it?? Personally, I really enjoy them both for their unique sounds.

[@justinhogan9999]

I'm with Douglas on this one. Tab is the man and JB can suck a fat one!!!

[@justinhogan9999]

And JB is only 39 how where in the hell did you get 37 years of hard work entertaining? Every one that's ever seen Tab live can tell that he's a truly loves what he does and is also one hell of a comedian and he's Southern. JB is from New York.

[@zackmurphy5325]

this dude is the John Mayer of the swamp

[@radioactivesludge23]

This is awesome music sons of guns got me into his music

[@jasongarcia9614]

James Thomas me too

[@pcmcmeans]

Me, too! Googled him the first time I saw that show. Too bad Will turned out to be a jerk. But, at least I got introduced to this wonderful guy and his amazing music!! Best I have heard.....in a while! Love it!,,

[@Attercop47]

just 3 guys making all of that music

[@rubboardcindy]

+Attercop47 ...Kinda like ZZTop here in Texas..3 piece band is all you need if you are good...

[@Attercop47]

ya, I have been a life long ZZTop fan it cool when people can come together and make it click

[@Irotten]

That's great. If he is as nice as Tab is he must be a good guy.

[@Irotten]

@mattjsr Not sure on what you mean on "You get tired?". If you mean no new recordings. He has not come back into town for me to go see him again but when he does I will be adding new stuff. "Maybe if I played it?" Not sure what you mean on that ether.

[@BBQPITDOG]

I was at this show right behind the tripod. Tab and the band was awesome! He hung around after the show and talked with everyone. He is not only a great musician...also a great person! If you have a chance...go see him live.

[@Irotten]

@mattjsr I get it now that I read the earlier post. If I was able to move around some I would not get tired. But having to hold the camera up and also hold it still, you get tired after a while and the muscle cramps start. Were I able to sling it around and walk like when playing guitar, no I would not get tired.

[@Dana-op6ex]

Listen this man play? Corey and his band, fantastic too...no mud on their shoes, either, eh????! xo

[@Nounismisation]

Have no idea who these three are, but it feels good!

[@Jen_Is_Outside]

I cant wait to see him live in FLA again 🔥❤

[@alienuh]

[@MrSonzera]

Só não pode colocar fogo na guitarra, pois, é um equipamento para ser maltratado sem destruir.

[@MrSonzera]

O timbre dessa Fender é bárbaro!!!! Acho que umas 5 garrafas de cerveja gelada e bebendo no gargalo.

[@lambo90dmc12]

I have had the pleasure of seeing him live, what a great show that was. Fully infused blues show had the whole crowd swaying and feeling the music.

[@cortezdecuir6909]
