He has recorded and performed with greats such as Junior Wells, George Porter Jr, Dr. John, Willie Nelson, Big Chief Monk Boudreaux, Billy Joe Shaver, Maria Muldaur, James Cotton, Cyril Neville, Kenny Aronoff, Allen Toussaint, Kim Wilson, Jimmy Thackery, Charlie Musslewhite, Kenny Neal, Chris Layton, Ivan Neville, Jimmy Hall, Jim Lauderdale, Anders Osborne and Alvin Youngblood Hart.
Tab's accomplishments as a musician are matched only by his devotion to the environmental health of his native Louisiana wetlands.

In 2010, he received the Governor's Award from the Louisiana Wildlife Federation for Conservationist of the Year.
