About Me |
|
| King Of The Road
Harlem Nocturne The Devil's Chasing Me Jim "Reverend Horton" Heath (Guitar, Vocals): Over the past fifteen years Reverend Horton Heat have established themselves as one of the hardest touring bands with one of the best live shows ever to hit the road. And with almost 200 performances every year from coast to coast, it is no wonder. As the band's front-man, Jim Heath preaches his punkabilly gospel with slicked back hair, flame-tipped suits, gritty voice, and amazing guitar picking. But what to do when you are back at home in Big-D taking a break from touring and still have the itch to get out and play? Well, you call up some local Dallas musicians and start a side project. Thus the birth of Reverend Organ Drum, the side project that sounds more like a main project, plus a chance for The Rev to have some fun. These shows are a great opportunity to see The Rev up close and personal, you can even chat with him during the breaks to find out just how he does that "secret" guitar lick. Tim Alexander (Hammond Organ): Tim Alexander won five Grammy Awards (Best Country Instrumental Performance 1987, 1988, 1993, 1995, and Best Country Performance by Duo or Group with Vocal 1994) while with western swing legends Asleep At The Wheel from 1984 through 1996. Tim has also been a long time friend of Jim's and has performed on several Reverend Horton Heat albums including Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em, Liquor In The Front, Space Heater, Martini Time, Revival, and the 2005 Christmas album We Three Kings. Besides touring with his current band, the roadhouse rockin' Elvis T. Busboy & The Blues Butchers, Tim is also an in demand studio musician in the DFW area. Watching Tim play the Hammond organ is like seeing two musicians in one. While watching him pound out bass lines with his left hand, all the while playing melody, harmony, and soloing with his right, you begin to understand just exactly why he has so many Grammys. Todd Soesbe (Drums): Sometimes being in a band is like real estate, it's all about "Location, Location, Location!". When Jim and Tim were looking for a drummer to round out their trio, they had to look no further than Jim's own next door neighbor Todd Soesbe. With a background in Jazz (schooled in the streets of Worcester, Massachusetts), playing arranged tunes, trading fours, and taking solos is right up his alley. He also sometimes just likes to lay down the groove and let Jim and Tim do their thing. With an ever present grin while he plays, some people have said that he is the happiest drummer they have ever seen. But hey, if you were up on stage with Jim and Tim you'd probably smile too. |
