Reverend Beat-Man
-from Berne, SW
-"He’ll make your back crack, your liver quiver, and your knees freeze. And if you don’t dig that you’ve got a hole in your soul, so let’s give a big warm welcome for the Rev, your Beat-Man, everybody’s Blues Trash Preacher, the fabulous Reverend Beat-Man"


Jimmy Touzel
-from Georgetown, SC
-With his glamorous custom western suit, soaring tenor vocals and vintage 6-string bass guitar with surf inspired twang, Jimmy Touzel has crafted a unique concept album and signature solo country act. His latest release, Lonesome Lullabies Vol. II, was released in the spring of 2025 by Belle Isle Records and to much fanfare. Drawing on influences such as 50’s rock, spaghetti westerns, David Lynch's Twin Peaks, and the 1960’s Nashville Sound, Lonesome Lullabies is drenched in plate reverb, tremolo, and slap back delay. These vibes and sounds of the 50’s and 60’s helped Jimmy paint a picture with Lonesome Lullabies that is dreamy, ethereal, stripped down and sad. Early reactions to the album have drawn comparisons to Eddie Arnold, Elliot Smith, Ennio Morricone, Link Wray, and Ricky Nelson.

In addition to his work as a solo artist, Jimmy has been a mainstay in the San Francisco Bay Area’s traditional American music scene for the past 20 years. Playing upright bass, electric bass, tuba, clarinet, and sax, he specializes in traditional bluegrass, traditional jazz, hot jazz, Django jazz, old time, rockabilly, classic country, and western swing. In addition to numerous music and film recordings on the upright bass fiddle, electric bass guitar, clarinet, sax, tuba, and guitar, Jimmy has toured coast-to-coast at home in the US, as well as performances in Canada, Holland, France, Belgium, Costa Rica, and Russia. He has performed live on stage with groups of note, such as the Earl Brothers, Gaucho, the Stylistics, Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs, Evanescence, Lindsey Sterling, the Brothers Comatose, Jackie Gore, and the Tams.

Mr. Touzel also has a passion for performing classical music on the clarinet. Before moving to the Bay Area, he held the Bass Clarinet chair in the Symphony Orchestra Augusta (GA) and the 2nd/Eb Clarinet position in the Long Bay (Myrtle Beach, SC) Symphony. Additionally, he played with the Wilmington (NC) Symphony and the Aspen Festival Orchestra. Jimmy has performed under the batons of many of the worlds leading conductors such as David Zinman, James Dupriest, Julius Rudel, Michael Stern, and Damon Gupton. He attended the Aspen Music Festival where he studied with Bass Clarinet legend Dennis Smylie.

Originally from Georgetown, South Carolina, Jimmy earned his Bachelor of Music Performance from the University of South Carolina where he studied clarinet with Doug Graham, jazz bass with Jim Mings, and jazz with Bert Ligon. Past clarinet studies also include: Carey Bell, Jerome Simas, Ted Gurch, Mark Brandon, and Gloria Campione. Past bass teachers have included Ken Miller, Djordje Stijepovic, Craig Butterfield, and Reggie Sullivan. An educator himself, Mr. Touzel is a member of the instrumental music faculty at the Oakland School for the Arts, where he teaches classes in classical, jazz, rock, and music history.

Never one to forget the glory of being a teenage child and learning how to play the electric bass in the 90’s, Mr. T still loves to turn it up loud and rock it hard, should the circumstances call for it.
