Heywood Banks

Heywood Banks is a songwriter, comic, singer, poet and musician all in one, and his show is hard to pin down. He mixes humorous takes on life with bizarre, inventive songs that run from folk to country to rock to pop and well beyond. You may have seen him on Evening at the Improv, MTV's Half Hour Comedy Hour or the Dr. Demento Show, and he's a frequent guest on the national Bob and Tom radio show.

Come for the vocal impressions, the sharp musicianship and the plain silliness. If you know your pop culture, you'll catch even more.
