The 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. Their ecord Dance Songs For Hard Times went #1 on the Billboard, iTunes and Sirius XM Blues Charts and was produced by Grammy winner Vance Powell. The record was critically acclaimed by Rolling Stone, Relix, Popmatters, Guitar World, American Songwriter, No Depression, Glide, Wide Open Country, Paste, American Blues Scene and many more! Their latest record, Honeysuckle was produced and recorded by Reverend Peyton and mixed by eight-time Grammy winner Vance Powell (Chris Stapleton, Jack White). The record features many special guests, including gospel music group The McCrary Sisters on the song Manger, Blues Music Hall of Famer and Grammy-nominated harmonica player Billy Branch who plays on the Blind Lemon Jefferson song Nell (Prison Cell Blues), Grammy award-winning and IBMAs 10-time Fiddle Player of the Year Michael Cleveland plays on Freeborn Man and Colton Crawford from The Dead South plays banjo on The Good Die Young.special guest: Adrian and Meredith Band is a Nashville-based Bohemian swing-folk act built around rhythm, movement, and the shared experience of live music. Led by married troubadour duo Adrian and Meredith Krygowski, the band draws from Americana, swing, soul, polka, and global folk traditions, while avoiding rigid genre boundaries.With Adrian and Meredith, you never dance alone. Merediths old-time fiddle and percussive dance (often at the same time) invite audiences back into a freer, more visceral experience, while Adrian sings from a deeply human place, relating how much more alike we are than different, grounding the songs in empathy and connection.Anchored by Ben The Odyssey Reiffs inventive, rhythm-driven drumming and John Kveens driving upright bass, the band delivers a dynamic and flexible live sound. Syncopation and swinging rhythms, call-and-response vocals, in what Carson City Levitt has described as a world class performance from Adrian, Meredith, and longtime saxophonist and guitarist Ken Francis Wenzel create engaging, all-ages entertainment that welcome audiences from many backgrounds.
