Event Description
The Kingpins are a high powered horn-driven band that swept through the Vancouver,
BC music scene like a house on fire from 2000-2005. When the lion-voiced lead vocalist
Big Hank Lionhart moved to Edmonton in mid ‘05 the band went into hibernation. Over
the next dozen years most of the original members relocated to Victoria, BC and in ’19
the Kingpins reunited in their new Vancouver Island home. Once again, plying their hard
edged classic R&B and many original songs penned in the same style, this band of
seasoned musicians is making the rounds of clubs, festivals and concert halls, spreading
the joy and the news that real R&B is not dead. With it’s heavy beat, punchy horn section
and harmony laced vocals these guys will get any audience dancing in their seats!
Hank “Uncle Wiggly” Lionhart - Lead Vocals
Jack Lavin (Founding Member of The Powder Blues Band) - Bass
Steve Cross - Guitar
