Showing impeccable taste, the Reverend Horton Heat handpicked Texan eccentric Junior Brown as part of the rollicking “Horton’s Holiday Hayride.” Brown has been wowing tuned-in country and rockabilly fans since the early ’90s with his custom-made doubleneck “guit-steel” hybrid guitar, and of course, attendant flair with it. Coming off like a dapper cross between Link Wray, Luther Perkins and Red Simpson, Junior Brown is an American original in the good way and well worth the pilgrimage to Disney Springs.
