Winston Partner John Schreiber Crowned Champion at Law Rocks San Francisco

For the second year running, Winston & Strawn in-house rock band Jimmy’s Brother served up the winning performance at the Law Rocks San Francisco competition.

The April 19 event was held at The Chapel, where seven law firm bands jammed their hearts out for their charity of choice. Jimmy’s Brother brought the house down in support of Rocket Dog Rescue, a San Francisco Bay Area nonprofit that saves dogs from overcrowded shelters and helps get them adopted. The band raised more than $13,000 in donations and ticket sales. They supported the same organization in 2017.

Jimmy’s Brother features Winston Los Angeles Partner John Schreiber and incoming Los Angeles Associate Deven Klee. Miles Silverstein (son of New York Partner Kelly Librera) was a special guest vocalist.

Full set list:

1. “Bang a Gong (Get It On)” (T.Rex)/mash up with “Cigarettes & Alcohol” (Oasis)
2. “Unbelievable“ (EMF)
3. “You Don’t Know How It Feels” (Tom Petty)
4. “How’s It Going to Be?” (Third Eye Blind)
5. “White Rabbit” (Jefferson Airplane)
6. “Hit Me Baby One More Time” (Britney Spears)
7. “All These Things I’ve Done” (The Killers)
8. “Should I Stay or Should I Go?” (The Clash) 
9. “Wonderwall” (Oasis)/mash up with “Day in the Life” (Beatles)

Championship encore:

Winston attorneys, staff, and alumni from across the country rallied around the band and their cause, rocking out and donating generously. Los Angeles Partner Erin Ranahan was instrumental in creating awareness and enthusiasm for this epic battle of the bands, now a firm tradition.
