Lawrence Kendall Hall (June 30, 1940 – September 24, 1997)[1] was an American singer mostly known for his 1959 one-hit wonder song, "Sandy".
He attended Rancho Alamitos High School in Garden Grove, California in the late 1950s.
He also sang for the rest of his life, joined by his brother Gene at various night clubs in the Willamette Valley and on the Oregon coast, and he was often noted in the Magpie, a local musical news tabloid published in Salem, Oregon.
Hall continued to sing and play guitar until his death from cancer on September 24, 1997, in Oregon at the age of 57.
[2] Another singer, Brian Hyland also had a version of "Rosemary" out which Billboard said could offer some serious competition.
