Hello World! Tab Benoit burned up the Tupelo stage with drummer Jeffery “Jellybean ” Alexander and bassist Corey Duplechin. I loved hearing two of my favorites, “Shelter Me” and “Nothing Takes the Place of You “. Tab had the audience going with his humor as well. After the show, I asked Tab and his band what they are listening to.
Corey listens to Jazz, Funk, and Fusion on Pandora. He has a wide range of musical interests including Alice Cooper and AC/DC. I have to say if you wanna rock out AC/DC is at the top of the list! Although It’s a Long Way to the Top!
Jellybean likes old R and B as well as Mint Condition-check out (Nothing Left to Say ). This is the second time I have seen Jellybean perform. He has a smile that does not quit!
When I asked Tab, he said, “I am listening to you” (talk that is). Not a chance that he would refer to my singing. Tab feels music deep in his soul and favors the music he grew up with. Although he did not give specifics, I think it safe to say the Blues were an influential part of his youth! Tab considers the songs that get stuck in his head a nuisance. Unless of course, they’re his creations. For more info on Tab Benoit click on tabbenoit.com. He will be in New England for a few more shows this month.
Thanks “guys”! Loved learning about “wild chickens” and “tricorn hats” too!
Thanks for checking in!
What are you listening to?
