“We researched these dangerous hollywood style stunts and my best friend Jim Connor volunteered to let me set him on fire inside my house,” says Rev. Peyton. All of these people, animals, and machinery were all packed inside of Rev. and Breezy’s tiny cabin in the Brown County Hills. “These folks are just our friends and family,” Rev. Peyton says. “We are lucky to be surrounded by hillbillies, performers, artists, daredevils, and adventurers.” With almost no budget, this video is ONE continuous camera shot and was captured by Rev’s good pal and amazing photographer Tyler Zoller in ONE take. It is all DIY, but all the proper precautions were taken. Rev. urges people not to try this at home, especially if you live in a wood house.
Washboard Breezy, Rev. Peyton’s wife and band member, says, “The song is stripped down, Maxwell Senteney plays a suitcase just like on the record, but it sounds huge.” “It’s all about the vocals,” Rev. Peyton says. “Max and Breezy make the song for me.”
From livestock to Harley motorcycles, from live shoot outs to a man fully engulfed in flames they are all packed into Rev. and Breezy’s tiny log cabin shack.
