JEFFREY LEWIS & THE JUNKYARD

Anti-folk but pro-fun!

Born and raised Lower East Sider Jeffrey Lewis leads a double-life as a comic book writer/artist and a musician. Live shows by his band The Junkyard incorporate "low budget videos", Jeff's large illustrations displayed to accompany certain songs - the multi-part edutainment 'A History of Communism' or flights of fancy like 'The Creeping Brain'.

In 2001 Jeffrey Lewis signed to Rough Trade Records and has since released six albums, touring the world and performing with the likes of Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks, Devendra Banhart, The Fall, The Vaselines, Beth Orton,The Fiery Furnaces, Daniel Johnston, Scout Niblett, The Mountain Goats, Cornershop, The Cribs, etc etc.
