Rev. Peyton’s Big Damn Band

Five minutes before we took the stage @washboardbreezy caught me warming up on the song Mama Do on the @steelbelly_guitars 12 string resonator. Before we drove to the stage at @billmonroemusicpark for the Southern Indiana Blues Fest in the old Cadillac.

@pappyandharriets then @hobsandiego then @thepeppermintclub then @bluesapalooza Special thanks to our friend “Canyon” Dan at @grandcanyonnps for being the best guide, not just for the vistas but for the knowledge of the history and majesty of this sacred place.

This place fills your eyes with grandeur that I feel unworthy to even gaze upon. Thank you for this life, short though it is. We go into California next with songs on our tongue and wonders unimaginable in our hearts.

She always has the best feel, she plays without ego, everything is just for the song and the music, and Steve Cropper said she is the best washboard player he’s ever seen. She deserves more accolades and recognition.

On the International Women’s Day, we want to acknowledge the amazing @washboardbreezy who is by far the smartest person I’ve ever met, the real brains behind this operation, and the most empathetic person in this outfit.

❤️

Happy record-release day to @bigdamnband.bsky.social. I caught up with the Rev for this new Indianapolis Business Journal profile: shorturl.at/w2Api #HoosierSky

The fun and knowledgeable people at @elderlyinstruments opened up the vault for us, and here’s a couple of my favorites that I got to play. Thanks to Jake, Benji, and Bruce (who sold me my first National Guitar over 25 years ago). We got there late in the day, and definitely owe them another visit

Drum eye view of last night at @masseyhall. A little taste of our version of Chuck’s Run Rudolph. Put it on your holiday playlist! Thanks @thedeadsouth for having us! Watch @brotherjacobdrums rock the drums!

Thank you so much!

She said, “don’t take my picture I don’t have makeup on, and my lips are chapped.” I ask you friend, what’s a fella to do?

Just blending in with the locals, and having a wonderful time on tour in Canada with The Dead South.

Fun guitars and saving money! What’s not to like friends? Check this out and don’t forget my code “BIGDAMNBAND” at CBGitty.com. It works for this “Beale Street Busker,” or anything else at CBGitty! Thanks for all the support! @cbgitty thanks so much!

Enjoying the last warm day of the year w/ some trance blues on the water. The ‘30 National has too light of strings for this tuning, but I’ve been drawn to it lately. Getting ready for the shows this weekend in Bloomington, IN and Cincy! See yall at @BuskirkChumley & @SGHRevival

And I’ve been playing a ton of guitar! I can’t stop! Shows this week in Bloomington, IN @buskirkchumley and just outside of Cincy in Newport at the @sghrevival ! Spread the word friends. We have a lot of songs to play for y’all, and a lot of music in our hearts.

It’s been a nice little break in touring. Got to witness the wedding of my great guitar tech Benjie, caught a bunch of fish up in MI with my buddy Jim Connor & Capt. RedBeard, received an icon award from @IUIndianapolis and the music program with @analogMatthew!

Back to attempt to post here and see if things are building at all. Mic check….

It’s beautiful here in Zion Canyon! We headline the @zioncanyonmusicfestival tomorrow (Friday), then it’s Phoenix at @rhythmroom and then into California with so many dates! It’s great to see the beauty here and @washboardbreezy’s beautiful smile! #bigdamnband

Last night at home before we head west! Ended up throwing all these little guys back to get bigger. Heading to Colorado, California, Utah, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and More! Can’t wait to see all of our friends out west. Makes missing sunsets like this worth it.

Honestly it’s more fun when Bobo honks on you.

These fellas are traveling with this “pet” bird. They’ve been all the way from Georgia to NH with it. When they go in somewhere, hotel, restaurant, whatever… it just stays on their Range Rover. Came back from gym at 4am, & it was still sitting and sh1tting there happy as can be.

Two questions…. Does anyone or organization need an electric wheelchair lift? Rated for 800 pounds. It’s free to a good home. Southern Indiana.

And any of y’all work on diesels?

Thanks for the great time Europe. @zwartecross fest was a great way to end the six week tour. One of my favorite tours we’ve ever done. Now we head home! #bigdamnband
