Formed
in 1985, The Reverend Horton Heat exploded on the scene by playing gigs around
their hometown of Dallas, Texas. Their sound is self-described as “country-fed
punkabilly” with their music a mixture of country, surf, punk, big band, swing
and rockabilly, all played loud and energetically with lyrics that are often
humorous. Often imitated, never duplicated, they have continued to garner the
support of both the underground rockabilly/ psychobilly scene and mainstream
critics. Throughout the band's million plus album selling career, their music
has been featured in countless TV shows, movies and commercials, it's
impossible to deny the powerful force that is The Reverend Horton Heat. They
continue to electrify audiences time and time again with their incredible stage
presence, rock 'n roll charisma and contagious energy.
Ready
to revive a genre that's been watered down for years, The Reverend Horton Heat
have jump started their headlining “Stewed, Screwed and Tattooed” tour that
ignited more than fifty-seven cities across the United States throughout 2013.
Lemmy from Motorhead said it best, “Reverend Horton Heat, he's great and plays
the music he believes in and nothing else. Go see him or I'll kill you!”
Prepare to rock harder than you have ever rocked before!
Its
current members are Jim “Reverend Horton” Heath on guitar and lead vocals,
Jimbo Wallace on the upright bass and Scott Churilla on drums. The band signed
to Victory Records on November 27, 2012, and released their eleventh studio
album, “Rev,” on January 21, 2014.
