Lagerhead

Full Bodied Texture With a Mild, Sweet Aftertaste.

About Me

Sometimes the most unlikely combinations result in a new, exciting blend. This is the foundation of Lagerhead- from its members to its songwriting. Blend bluegrass with disco? Sure, why not! Fuse classical and jazz? absolutely! Play metal with a violin? Sweet! There’s nothing they’re not up for trying, and it shows in their music.
For the past 3 years, Lagerhead has spent a lot of time on their sound. Armed with music degrees and a drive to make appealing songs, they have racked up many gigs in this short period including festivals, home shows, political rallies, and charity benefits.
Led by the husband and wife "dream team" of Sean and Donna Loomis, and backed by Perry Glass and Zach Gottschalk, Lagerhead gets the crowd’s attention wherever they go- without the need for lyrics. A Lagerhead show is instead focused on new sounds, tight changes, amazing solos, and a massive amount of energy. But don’t just take our word for it-

"They always pack the place when they play. They pull a good crowd." -Dawn Sayre (co-owner) Brewbaker’s - Winchester, VA
“Lagerhead opened the event and got the crowd dancing with an eclectic mix that would have fit in at New York’s CBGB, the jazz clubs of Chicago, or Haight-Ashbury.” -The Winchester Star
"New, different, and refreshing. It’s hard to do this in an age where vocals rule." -Chris Murphy (recording engineer) RHL audio - Falls Church, VA
"Dave Matthews meets Greatful Dead." -Terry Hudson (owner) Sweet Caroline’s - Winchester, VA
