Raised in the Deep Dirty South of Jacksonville comes two brothers who just wanna fuckin rock and kick the livin shit out of every piece of shitty ass band out there. Harley Moonshine and Reed Moonshine were born one night to a lovely young Southern Belle. They fought their way out of that bitch and ended up killing the young woman. Unfortunatly they did not have any other family so they were sent to live with a lonely lady who was radiant, beautiful, and lived in a trailer park on the St. Johns River. There in the trailer park they had access to anything from booze to cigarettes (although Reed prefers cigars) to guitars and drums to fast women. By the age of 9 they had each fucked and drank more than a 40 year old man. During Highschool, or the year they tried highschool, Harley played bass from when he came home from school to when he had to go to school the next day. He would often go to school just to sleep. Reed decided to try out drums. He was a natural born talent and barely ever practiced. He was too busy finding trailer trash to fuck then to practice his drumming skills. Each weekend the Brothers Moonshine would walk around the trailer park getting drunk and having sex with any female body that was alive...and sometimes DEAD. After 19 years of doing this they decided they needed to do something with their lives. They decided to start a band. A band that would rock so hard that they could possibly kill people by just rocking. They made a promise to each other that whatever they did, they would make sure their band brought the rock, and brought it harder than anyone out there.
Mamma B was raised in the tobacco fields of South Carolina. She grew up picking cotton and raising money for her family. Mamma B worked many other jobs as a young woman. She ironed clothes, sold fruit and vegetables, and even worked the street corner. The best job she ever had though was washing clothes. It was this job in which she found her rhythm. She had to use a washboard and one night while she was working late she started playing the washboard with a pair of old spoons. She loved this instrument and it brought happiness to her otherwise sad life. As she got to tire of S.C. she decided to move to Jacksonville and buy a trailer on the St. Johns River. She eventually adopted and raised two brothers.
Clancy Cash was born into the lap of luxury. His mother's father was brothers to Johnny Cash. His family had everything they needed. They were rich, powerful in the community and full of themselves. Clancy was brought up with every toy, a meal at every dinner and a good education. During highschool Clancy realized that the whole rich thing was not for him. He took the one thing he loved, his Stevie Ray Vaughan sig. guitar, and walked away from his life. He decided to catch a train to Jacksonville and live on the beach and play his guitar for money.
One day the Moonshine brothers asked their Mamma B if she wanted to play the washboard in their new band. She agreed but only if the boys would watch their language a little bit and find her a male groupie every night. The deal was on. They decided to go to the beach one night and have a 40oz. night. While at the beach they heard the beautiful sounds of Clancy's guitar. They asked if he wanted to be in a band and possibly make a few extra bucks. He said no untill they told him they could hook him up with a very nice trailer in the same park on the St. Johns.
Now that the band was together they needed a name. They discussed it and agreed that they should name it after the great Southern General of the Civil War, Byron Boyd. They also wanted people to feel like every show was a religious experience. Thus the revival part. Now the Byron Boyd Revival didnt not sound like what they wanted completely. They decided to let people know what and who they were and what they would be getting into. Hellbilly. Hellbilly describes exactly who they are. The Byron Boyd Hellbilly Revival was formed.
As you step into a show one Friday or Saturday night, and you think you are going to have a good time, think twice. The Byron Boyd Hellbilly Revival will blow the shit out of your asshole and put the fear of Rock back into your soul. Get ready cause they are bringing the rock back to the Bold New City of the South...America.
