Revere is an unincorporated community in Madison County, North Carolina, United States.

During the Civil War, a Baptist preacher travelling through the area commented on a group of prostitutes and compared it to Sodom in the Bible.

[5] Revere is particularly rich in ballad singers, and noted folklorist Cecil Sharp transcribed several "Old World" ballads sung to him in 1916, some by family members of singer Dillard Chandler.

[6] In 2001, Rob Amberg published a book Sodom Laurel Album that chronicles the traditions and lifestyle in Revere.

Residents and folk singers Dellie Norton, Doug Wallin, and Sheila Kay Adams are featured in the book.
