June 20, 2012You guys were fantastic! You really took me back to my high school days. I enjoyed that you covered the whole decade and aren't just some grunge band. Great sound and very entertaining. You really added a lot to my friend's party. I want book you for my high school reunion.

Hailing from Raleigh, NC, The Big Lewinski is made up of some of the East Coast's finest first-call musicians doing what they love -- playing the music they grew up with. More importantly, we're PROFESSIONALS who know you want a strong musical performance and not logistics hassles. We take care to bring everything we need (except electricity) -- we provide the sound system and lights and sound engineer (if required or by request).
About us:
Hal Haygood, after years of playing lead guitars in bands from Arizona to the East Coast, has stepped up to the microphone for his second time in the saddle as lead singer and front man. If his powerhouse vocals don't floor you, his wicked guitar licks and drunken hippie dance moves will.
David West, or as we like to call him, "Sarge", is a bass player with chops and more chops. A product of nationally-renown NC Central's jazz program, David can lay down those funky lines and sing at the same time. David also plays trumpet and french horn in the 440th Army band and spends his free time gettin' down with his bad self.
Shane O'Donnell () handles drumming and harmony vocal duties for TBL and contributes the occasional vocal as well. Armed with a degree in Music Business, Shane took the music world (read: clubs throughout the midwest) by storm playing bass in a country band through most of the 90s. TBL gives him the chance to relive the rock of that era -- and to remember when he had hair.
