Tab Benoit is that essential Louisiana Roots Artist. In his bag he hauls along a tight band of musicians as well as many of the styles that are indigenous to the region including Rock, Funk, Blues, Zydeco, R&B, Cajun, and even Country. His raw tone and honest grit has been locking fans into his ever growing fan base for over 18 years and with three Grammy award nominations, nearly a dozen Blues Music Awards, and an arsenal of some of the best music the region has produced with his 2011 Telarc/ Concord release he has proven that good “MEDICINE” goes a long way.
