The Fabulous Thunderbirds featuring Kim Wilson

The Ponte Vedra Concert Hall welcomes The Fabulous Thunderbirds on Tuesday, April 14, 2026, at 8:00 p.m. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. 

For more than three decades, The Fabulous Thunderbirds have embodied the spirit of American music, blending blues, R&B, rock 'n' roll, Cajun, and soul into their signature sound. Their distinctive style shines through hits like "Scratch My Back," “Tuff Enuff,” “Wrap It Up,” "Wait Time," and “Look at That.”

At the heart of the band is founding member Kim Wilson, the powerhouse vocalist and harmonica player whose artistry defines the group. Wilson began playing harmonica at 17 in Goleta, California, later expanding into vocals inspired by legends like B.B. King, Otis Rush, Jimmy Rodgers, and Muddy Waters. After moving to Austin, Texas, he met guitarist Jimmie Vaughan, and together they formed The Fabulous Thunderbirds in 1974.

By 1979, the band released their self-titled debut album, a record that would soon earn cult-classic status. The Fabulous Thunderbirds' discography includes The Fabulous Thunderbirds, What's the Word, Butt Rockin', T-Bird Rhythm, Tuff Enuff, Hot Number, Powerful Stuff, Walk That Walk, Talk That Talk, Roll of the Dice, High Water, Painted On, Thunderbirds!, On the Verge, Strong Like That, and their most recent album, Struck Down.
