  CMT.com : Reverend Horton Heat : Biography
Reverend Horton Heat -- the man, not the band -- was born James C. Heath in Corpus Christi, TX.
Reverend Horton Heat were a big hit around the area, and soon began touring extensively all around the country.
Horton Heat returned in 1996 with It's Martini Time, which featured several nods to the swing and lounge revival scenes emerging around that time; as a result, the title track became a minor hit, and the album became their first to chart in the Top 200.

 Reverend Horton Heat | Biography | MTV
The Reverend Horton Heat is perhaps the most popular psychobilly artist of all time, really rivaled only by genre founders the Cramps.
In his hands, it was something more than retro-obsessed kitsch -- it had roaring distorted guitars, it rocked as hard as any punk band, and it didn't look exclusively to pop culture of the past for its style or subject matter.
His initial recordings were released by that bastion of indie credibility, Sub Pop, at the height of the grunge craze; after a spell on major label Interscope, he returned to the independents, still a highly profitable draw on the concert circuit.

 Reverend Horton Heat: Lucky 7 - PopMatters Music Review
The Reverend was dark, scary, and fearful, mixing the threatening messages of a hickish, backwoods, bible-thumpin' preacher with rockabilly riffs from Hell to form a careening rock 'n' roll mess that made for some of the most interesting records of the '90s.
Granted, the Reverend Horton Heat were never a true mainstream success, but in the fairly diverse mid-'90s alternative rock scene, there was room for a band that mixed scary religious antics and edgy rockabilly with a defiantly white-trash sensibility.
That means that anyone who has continued to follow Reverend Horton Heat until now will probably still be glad to have this, even if it doesn't really begin to compare with their/his peak output.

Reverend Horton Heat in concert, with Jim Heath balanced on Jimbo Wallace's bass.
So when Reverend Horton Heat, the band -- guitarist Heath, bassist Jimbo Wallace and drummer Scott Churilla -- went to make its latest recording, "Revival" (Yep Roc), the trio wanted the album to sound as close as possible to their blazing concert performances.
After coming home for Christmas, Reverend Horton Heat was scheduled to take to the road starting New Year's Eve for what Heath calls a "ski bunny trip" -- ski resorts and Western climes.

The Reverend Horton Heat has been churning out his brand of '50s-style rockabilly for over a decade, preaching about all the good things in life - beer, whiskey, tequila, drugs, hot women, fast cars, Texas and his friend Jimbo.
The good Rev was kind enough to chat with CMJ while on break from his tour (and after a visit to his dentist) to dish about how he got into the scene, the rock 'n' roll image, his new record and his love for record labels.
On the Drew Carey Show, he was making a cross-country trip with one of the producers of his show in some fast car, and this producer friend was into Reverend Horton Heat and had the CD and ended up playing it for most of the trip out to California.

 Reverend Horton Heat
Undeniably, The Reverend Horton Heat, aka Jim Heath, is the biggest, baddest, grittiest, greasiest, greatest rocker that ever piled his hair up and pounded the drinks down.
Without question, for all of his outlandish antics, blistering stage performances and legendary musical prowess, the one thing The Rev always gets asked about is the story behind his unusual and rather clerical moniker.
It's true that the Reverend Horton Heat have been called a great many things over the course of their storied career: Perpetual Carriers Of The Rockabilly Flame, Genre-Shattering Shit-Starters, Filthy Drunks, and The Most Electrifying Live Act In America (150 shows every year can't be wrong) among them.

 Ink 19 :: The Reverend Horton Heat
The Reverend Horton Heat is the onstage alter ego of one Jim Heath, guitarist and frontman for a smokin' Texas-based three-piece that coined the term "psychobilly," a hybrid of old school-rockabilly and new school punk fury.
The band is also called Reverend Horton Heat, and features Jimbo Wallace on stand-up bass and Scott Churilla on drums.
The band's been churning out great records for the last decade, and is at the forefront of the revival in "hot rod" culture, a movement that Heath opines, "revolves around a look.

I expected the usual mind-blowing set from long-time favorites the Reverend Horton Heat, but I wasn't sure exactly what to expect from Hank III, the grandson of Hank Williams (and son of "Bocephus").
Hank III proved to be the perfect opener for the devastating psychobilly freakout that is a Reverend Horton Heat gig.
If the Rev's set seemed a bit short, they didn't waste much time in coming back to the stage to correct that, with a smoking 5-song encore that included such favorites as "Bad Reputation," "Psychobilly Freakout," and "Big Red Rocket of Love." All in all, a truly memorable night, and a truly spectacular show.

 Lucky 7, MP3 Album Music Download at eMusic
Goosed by the news that this album's "Like a Rocket" (with slightly altered lyrics) was chosen as 2002's official Daytona 500 theme song, Reverend Horton Heat and his trusty duo of wildman bassist Jimbo and loose limbed drummer Scott Churilla rev up their collective engines again.
Adding the fleet-fingered bluegrass of the instrumental "Show Pony" to his established bag of tricks, along with the reverb-laden spaghetti western Dick Dale-isms of another instrumental and the intricately suite-styled "Duel at the Two O'Clock Bell," shows how adaptable and talented Heat is as a guitarist.
But the spoken word "Sermon on the Jimbo" puts religion back in the Rev's schtick as he provides a fire and brimstone sermon about his bandmate in a tacky bit that goes nowhere.
