Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band

Hometown: Brown County or In Our Van, Indiana, Un
Tags: blues, country, country blues

Hailing from rural Indiana, Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band plays acoustic country blues (think Son House and Charley Patton) with an understated but undeniable punk kick. Finger-picking guitarist Reverend Peyton, his washboard-rubbing wife, Breezy, and drumming brother, Jayme, have played more than 250 shows a year since selling some 5,000 copies of their debut demo CD, The Pork ’n’ Beans Collection, out of the back of their van a little more than three years ago. They’ve since recorded three more albums full of hootenanny-worthy roots jams: Big Damn Nation, The Gospel Album EP and the new The Whole Fam Damnily, featuring songs like “Walmart Killed the Country Store” and “Your Cousin’s on Cops” that are even more fun than their titles suggest.

  If your idea of “big” is two dudes and a lady with a guitar, a drum kit, and a washboard, you’ve already grasped the subtle intricacies of The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band. more at avclub.com

MyOldKentuckyBlog on Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band

over 4 years ago

The band continues to blend roots, blues, rock and punk - as you would expect. There is just enough tongue-and-cheek and there are plenty of songs about food (Mama's Fried Potatoes) and family (Your Cousin's On Cops). more at myoldkyhome.blogspot.com
