An Evening with Reverend Horton Heat


Since the early ’80s, Dallas, TX-based singer and guitarist Jim “Reverend Horton Heat” Heath has been cooking up a powerful blend of retro-garage, punk and rockabilly; he is now revered as one of the most skillful and fiery bandleaders in the psychobilly world. Heath and his current rhythm section—bassist Jimbo Wallace and drummer Scott Churilla—will bring their rock mayhem to Athens this week behind their latest studio album, Laughin’ & Cryin’ with the Reverend Horton Heat, and a newly released, three-disc compilation titled 25 to Life—a lively “best of” collection comprised of tracks recorded during a national tour in 2010, the first live album Heath has released in his storied career.
