Buddy Tabor was born March 12, 1948, in Roanoke, Virginia. He started playing guitar at age seventeen after he first heard Bob Dylan. His musical and poetical influences are Bob Dylan, Hank Williams, John Prine, Johnny Cash, Leonard Cohen, Hazel Dickens and Townes Van Zandt.

Buddy hitchhiked to Alaska in 1967. He worked in salmon canneries, on fishing boats, the Alaska Pipeline, and as a house-painting contractor. In 1976, he met his wife, Jeannette Chee, while working on the pipeline. Jeannette is a Navajo from White Water, New Mexico. Her Native and Western culture has greatly influenced his writing.

His song "Get Up Dogs" was used in several documentaries and by ABC's Wide World of Sports. His work has also appeared on numerous NPR stations. The Undertakin' Daddies, a Juno Award-nominated Canadian roots band, recorded Buddy's "New Fallen Snow" for their 2001 album, Post Atomic Hillbilly.

Buddy is a veteran of the Alaska Folk Festival, Dawson City Music Festival and Yukon Frostbite Music Festival.
