Join us for an exhilarating evening as the legendary multi-Grammy nominee and wetlands activist Tab Benoit brings his high-energy Soul of the Swamp Tour 2026 to the KiMo. Known for his passionate performances and deep-rooted connection to the swamp, Tab Benoit is a true master of his craft, boasting over 20 releases that showcase his unique artistry.

With iconic radio hits like "Nice and Warm" and "Cross the Line" from his 90s recordings, critics have often described Benoit's voice as "Otis Redding-ish," while his guitar playing is celebrated for its originality and distinctive style. In 2024, he made a triumphant return with his first recording in 13 years, I Hear Thunder, signaling that his best work is yet to come.

On the Soul of the Swamp Tour, Tab will take you on a musical journey, performing songs from his vast catalog and digging deep into the rich tones and storytelling lyrics that have made him an admired figure in the music world. True to his authentic style, Tab performs without effects—just a guitar, a cord, and an amp—allowing the magic of his music to shine through his hands, fingers, and his band.

A powerhouse performer with grit, soul, and serious chops, Ghalia Volt brings a magnetic, high-voltage presence to the stage—armed with just a guitar, foot-drums, and raw talent. Born in Belgium and raised on the streets of Brussels, she carved her path busking before diving deep into the American South's blues tradition.
