Reverend Horton Heat

 Loaded guns, space heaters, and  big skies. Welcome to the lethal  littered landscape of Jim Heath’s  imagination. True to his high evan 

gelical calling, Jim is a Revelator,  both revealing & reinterpreting the  country-blues-rock roots of Ameri can music. He’s a time-travelling  space-cowboy on a endless inter stellar musical tour, and we are all  the richer & “psychobillier” for get ting to tag along. 

 Seeing REVEREND HORTON  HEAT live is a transformative ex perience. Flames come off the gui tars. Heat singes your skin. There’s  nothing like the primal tribal rock  & roll transfiguration of a Rever end Horton Heat show. Jim be comes a slicked-back 1950′s rock &  roll shaman channeling Screamin’  Jay Hawkins through Buddy Holly,  while Jimbo incinerates the Stand Up Bass. And then there are the  “Heatettes”. Those foxy rockabilly  chicks dressed in poodle-skirts  and cowboy boots slamming the  

night away. It’s like being magically  transported into a Teen Exploita tion picture from the 1950′s that’s  currently taking place in the future.  Listening to the REVEREND HOR TON HEAT is tantamount to injecting  pure musical nitrous into the hot-rod  engine of your heart. The Reverend’s  commandants are simple.
