Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Al Lauro of Big Al and the Heavyweights

The music of Big Al and the Heavyweights begins with the beat laid down by drummer Big Al himself.  Big Al Lauro was born and raised in the city of New Orleans.  He grew up surrounded by the unique culture of the city that care forgot.  The food, the language, and of course the music became a part of him as surely as he became a part of New Orleans.  Year after year he saw Mardi through the eyes of a child, with a wonderment and jubilation that continues today in the music of Big Al and the Heavyweights.  His drumming has been described by Blues Brother Dan Akroyd as the “pounding, driving force” behind the music of The Heavyweights.
