The Indianapolis Star listed Reverend Peyton asone of the top 25 Hoosier musicians of all time.
Maybe you found the band because of virtuosic guitar playing? Maybe you came forthe tent revival style live show? The reasons that brought you here could beextensive, but the reasons that keep bringing people back are HEART. Real, from theheart, music made by people who love music. The Sacramento Bee said, “It’s agroup with boundless stockpiles of heart to spare—it cascades throughout everyslip-n-slide vintage blues/soul ditty they tear through and croon in every show theyplay, and they always leave a little behind. The front porch is the church, the churchis the dance hall and the dance hall is the river bank—your knees will fail you by thetime you figure it all out.”
Often called, "the greatest front-porch blues band in the world" the Big Damn Band isled by Reverend Peyton, who is considered to be the premier finger picker playingtoday. Rev has earned a reputation as both a singularly compelling performer and apersuasive evangelist for the rootsy, country blues styles that captured hisimagination early in life and inspired him andhis band to make pilgrimages toClarksdale, Mississippi to study under such blues masters as T-Model Ford, RobertBelfour and David “Honeyboy” Edwards. Accompanied by Rev’s wife, the washboardvirtuoso, Washboard Breezy Peyton, and kept on time by the deeprhythms of Jacob “The Snakob” Powell, Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band will leave you clapping,stomping, and singing along every handmade show across the world.
Their new record “Honeysuckle” was produced and recorded by Reverend Peytonand mixed by sixtime Grammy winner Vance Powell (Chris Stapleton, Jack White).The record features many special guests including gospel music group The McCrarySisters on the song “Manger”, Blues Music Hall of Famer and Grammy nominatedharmonica player Billy Branch whoplays on the Blind Lemon Jefferson song “Nell(Pr*son Cell Blues)”, Grammy award winning andIBMA's 10-time Fiddle Player of theYearMichael Cleveland plays on "Freeborn Man" and Colton Crawford from TheDead South plays banjo on "The Good Die Young""This record is a bit of a return to my roots, a very personal mix of old and new songsthat shaped me or that I’m currently shaping. It’s the most acoustic record we’vemade in years, vintage microphones, vintage guitars, vintage recording gear, and alotof me and my national guitar. There is a smattering of Big Damn Band thrown into themix to spice things up, and a short list of legends that I’ve always dreamed ofcollaborating with", said Reverend Peyton.
