Y-NOT?![edit]

Lewis formed Y-Not?! with bandmates Marco Riva, Steve Wallace, Darryl Joyner, and Steve Miller in 1987[1] on the campus of Salisbury University on Maryland's Eastern Shore. The band gained a sizable following performing in Ocean City, Maryland and other cities on the U.S. Eastern Coast, following the release of the 1992 album "A Thrilled Voice" on Marquis Records[12][13]. The success of the album lead to performance slots on festivals such as HFStival, DC 101 Chili Cook-Off and the Preakness Live Festival.[14]
