Rev. Bubba D Liverance & the Cornhole Prophets - All signed up

It was only ever a matter of time before the greatness of rock'n'roll soul survivors Rev Bubba D. Liverance and the Cornhole Prophets was recognized. And now it's happened. These hard livin', fun lovin', good rockin' sons of Alabama have signed to Sony Music Group's Red Music distribution group. The Sony subsidiary will distribute the band's incendiary game-changer of an album - last year's 'Let My Peoples Dance'. The album has since been re-titled as 'Didn't We Love and, with a bunch of new tunes and the clout of the global label behind them, it surely won't be long before this 8-piece horn band are household names. The album was nominated for 'Group Album of the Year' by the Carolina Beach Music Academy, while the past two years has also seen the Cornhole Prophets release a trio of top ten singles on Cashbox Magazine's charts. With three more singles due to come out simultaneously, Red Music is targeting three radio formats: AC, Country and College. And the infectious good time sounds of this uniquely talented band - now with a quality distribution network behind it - mean that it should be successful in all three markets. In its live shows, the band always gives its audience its money's worth. That live energy is communicated in its recorded music. And after signing this deal, Rev. Bubba D. Liverance and the Cornhole Prophets are ready to take that experience to a far wider audience. Watch out world, there's some new Prophets in town.

Rev. Bubba D. Liverance & the Cornhole Prophets - Three in one

Fresh from signing a game-changing deal with Sony Music's Red distribution group, Rev. Bubba D Liverance and the Cornhole Prophets have taken the unusual step of releasing a trio of singles at the same time, targeting three different markets. It's an unusual step by a band that has always eschewed doing things the regular way. But then, that's exactly how this Alabama 8-piece horn band with a penchant for rock'n'roll, soul, country and everything in between, have carved out a name for themselves. The Cornhole Prophets are a band that has always aimed at a broad cross-section of music lovers, and the release of three very different records at once is testament to their ability to cross genres and appeal to people across the generations. New song 'Cold Budweiser' is a rockin' blues stomper aimed squarely at the country radio audience. It is a Bruce Springsteen style anthem for all the hard working blue collar guys (and gals) who just want to kick back after a long day with a cold one and some old-time blues. 'My Baby's a Seafood Platter', released, like 'Cold Budweiser' on April 5, is a jump-jive swinging dancefloor filler with a cheeky line in innuendo-laced lyricism. It's been directed at the college radio market and is sure to have many a student jumping out their chairs and grabbing their partner for a spin on the tiles. 'Didn't We Love', aimed at adult contemporary radio, shows a more contemplative side to the Cornhole Prophets from their normal hard rocking sound. It still rocks, but demonstrates that the band doesn't have to go at 100mph to make an impact. All three songs are classics of their kind. And all three are yet more evidence that Rev Bubba D and his band of good ol' rock'n'roll survivors have a long future ahead of them.

KC Online Soundbites July 2008

Upon seeing the distinctive name of Alabama’s own RBDL & TCP (ok, maybe acronyms don’t always work…) this reviewer felt a little quiver go down his critical little spine. Band names can run the gambit from pompous (U2) to goofy (Flock of Seagulls…what was that about, anyway?) to legendary (AC freakin’ DC!), but some names just take the proverbial cake and the Rev. has done that in spades.

Beatwire.com Press Release June 2008

Rev. Bubba D Liverance says that the album he has made with the good honest folk who form his band, The Cornhole Prophets, is "just for fun." Well, the music may well be fun, but don't let Bubba fool you, because this is one band who know exactly what they are doing. Hailing from Auburn, Alabama, Bubba and his boys play the sort of music you sometimes wish everyone would make: Good honest rock and roll soul, with both heart and a sense of humour. The horns are as funky as anything James Brown could ever dream up, the guitars wail away like the best Stax records of yesteryear, while Bubba sings his heart out just like a good 'ol southern boy should. Put all these together and make them as tight as a band can be, and you've got music that will get everyone out of their seat and on to that dancefloor. It is no surprise, therefore, that the album should be called Let My Peoples Dance. The Cornhole Prophets are all about bringing the people's music back to the people and making it fun. Although the album will no doubt be enjoyed by people in homes, cars and headphones everywhere it is played, The Cornhole Prophets are above all a live experience. The feeling of playing to the audience, bouncing back off a frenzied crowd of converts and just getting funky is what informs this record. It is what makes us feel so fresh and alive. Listen to the raw soul power of the title track or That's What You Do, the dry comedy of My Baby Is A Seafood Platter or the appeal to real, honest music that is Ain't No American Idol and you'll know that Bubba and his band are as far away from the tasteless modern pop band as you can get. This is a band that thinks music should be real, should be live and should reach people. They haven't got a message, other than enjoy yourself and let your feet do the talking. You can call the music rock and roll, funk, soul, rhythm & blues, or even country. But whatever it is, it sure is a whole lot of fun. Give Bubba a whirl and get those toes tapping. Let My Peoples Dance is available to buy from June 2 2008.
