The Reverend Horton Heat is a Dallas, Texas-based psychobilly trio. Heath is a singer, songwriter and guitarist. A Prick magazine reviewer called Heath the "godfather of modern rockabilly and psychobilly".
The group formed in Dallas's Deep Ellum neighborhood and its current members are Jim "Reverend Horton" Heath on guitar and lead vocals, Jimbo Wallace on the upright bass and Jonathan Jeter on the drums.
The band describes itself as rock and roll that's influenced by 1950s country, surf, punk, big band, swing, and rockabilly standards. The band mixes these influences into loud, energetic songs with often-humorous lyrics. Video games, cartoons and commercials have used the band's songs, giving the Reverend Horton Heat mainstream exposure.
The legendary Rev Horton Heat just gets better and better over time. Great evening! I hope they come back!Reverend Horton Heat was the main act at the Empire Control Room with guests Nashville Pussy and The 40 Acre Mule. They continue across the United States and Spain with the last stop at the Azkena Rock Festival 2022 in Vitoria, Spain on June 17, 2022.
First time seeing the band. Loved the energy, the musicianship, the fun that each member displayed. Jim and Jimbo had the chemistry that long time partners have, but even the drummer and piano player brought a tremendous amount of enthusiasm. I am looking forward to seeing them again.
I never miss a chance to see the Reverend. Fun, entertaining, and great music. If you haven't seen him, be sure to go next time he's here!
Absolutely amazing. The whole band was so great and also so gracious. They even took the time after the show to shake hands and take pictures with the fans.
It was my 1st time seeing them! I loved every minute, they made me feel, even for just a moment, like I went back in time, they rocked it!
