Reverend Deadeye
Raised by fundamentalist Christian missionaries on an American Indian reservation, Denver’s Brent "Reverend Deadeye" Burkhart draws from a deep well of spirituality. But the one-man, hellfire-and-brimstone blues act simultaneously slays and celebrates the tenants of holiness. Sleazy, righteous, and oozing Delta sludge, the Reverend picks up the shtick first laid down by Bob Log III and ass-kicks his way halfway to heaven with it. In addition to playing slide guitar and howling into homemade, tin-can microphones, Burkhart is his own percussive accompanist. But even with every limb shackled to an instrument, he never fails to morph into a sweat-soaked fallen angel onstage.
