Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band- Front Porch Sessions
Southern Indiana-bred singer-guitarist Reverend Peyton is the bigger-than-life frontman of Reverend Peyton's Big Damn Band. He has earned a reputation as both a singularly compelling performer and a persuasive evangelist for the rootsy country blues styles that captured his imagination early in life and inspired him and his band to make pilgrimages to Clarksdale, Mississippi to study under such blues masters as T-Model Ford, Robert Belfour and David "Honeyboy" Edwards. The Front Porch Sessions maintains a potent level of intensity throughout, from the upbeat optimism of the album-opener "We Deserve a Happy Ending" to the blunt slice-of-life rural reality of "One More Thing" to the rollicking, playful swagger of "Shakey Shirley," "One Bad Shoe" and "Cornbread and Butterbeans." Meanwhile, the instrumentals "It's All Night Long" and "Flying Squirrels" demonstrate the Rev's nimble, imaginative guitar work."
Tracklist:
- We Deserve A Happy Ending
- When My Baby Left Me
- Shakey Shirley
- What You Did To The Boy Aint Right
- One Bad Shoe
- It's All Night
- One More Thing
- Flying Squirrels
- Let Your Light Shine
- When You Lose Your Money
- Cornbread And Butterbeans
