You can hear the bayou in every note Tab Benoit plays. On October 17, 2026, Benoit brings that Louisiana swamp blues to Assembly in Kingston for a night that’s going to hit like a Gulf Coast storm.
Benoit is the real thing — a guitarist and vocalist who came up in the Cajun country tradition and turned it into something raw, electric, and entirely his own. His tone is thick and unapologetic, his voice carries the kind of grit that only comes from decades of playing roadhouses and festivals.
Beyond the music, Benoit has dedicated himself to preserving Louisiana’s vanishing wetlands through his Voice of the Wetlands initiative.
Assembly, nestled in Kingston’s thriving creative corridor, is a venue that understands how to host music with this kind of weight.
If you love the blues — real blues, the kind that smells like cypress and tastes like iron — this is your night. Tab Benoit doesn’t perform the blues. He is the blues.
