The Rev tells American Blues Scene: "I've been obsessed with the idea of taking fingerstyle guitar to a place it's never been before." He adds: "When people hear So Delicious and see us play live, I think they understand that what we're singing about is real to us.

"We believe in the stories we're telling and in the way we play. And when we're on stage or off, there's nothing fake about us. We are what we do, and I'm proud of that."
