With ordained minister, Kentucky Colonel, and Wildman virtuoso The Rev. Peyton up front on the national guitar, his wife the lovely and equally insane Washboard Breezy, and little brother Jayme Peyton keeping time on the kick and snare, this is a band that crosses the barriers between indie rock/punk rock kids, scenesters and traditional blues fans. Over four years of touring, the band has managed to sell over 25K copies of their previous self-released albums, almost entirely from the road. Josh (The Reverend) Peyton was born in 1981 in rural Eagletown, Indiana and brother Jayme in 1983. At 13, Reverend Peyton's father gave him an electric guitar and amp. Shortly after, Jayme Peyton started playing the drums and, with a bass player formed a band called Drive-Thru and played parties. A friend pointed out the blues sound of Rev Peyton's guitar playing, sending Peyton off on an exploration of the blues of BB King, Muddy Waters and Bukka White. Further exploration led to pre-WWII country blues, and a desire to learn the finger-picking style of Charlie Patton. Peyton played a party following his high school graduation, and the next morning suffered excruciating pain in his hands. Doctors told Peyton he'd never be able to hold his left hand in fretting position again. At that point, he gave up on music and spent a year working as the desk clerk in a hotel. Following surgery, Rev Peyton met Breezy. When the bandages were removed, Peyton discovered a new flexibility in his fretting hand that enabled him to play in the "finger" style that had eluded him. Breezy bought a washboard, and started writing songs with Reverend & Jayme. A trip to Clarksdale, Mississippi inspired him to resume playing music, and the band played blues festivals & headlined two nights at actor Morgan Freeman's Ground Zero Blues Club in Clarksdale. The band tours ceaselessly and has toured with labelmates Flogging Molly.
