September 5 is full of great things at LMA, with a live concert of a US band, but also local artist, Chai kefu@warmWall and DJ’s such as LOBO (4daz-le), Gordon (Hi-Tech + TRIBE) and RyomA + RitA.
Combining folk warmth with garage noise, like if Woody Guthrie fronted Sonic Youth, Jeffrey Lewis began recording cassettes of his songs in New York City in the late 90s. Some of these songs found their way to the Rough Trade Records label in London (famous indie label of The Smiths, The Strokes, etc); since 2001 Jeffrey has been releasing critically acclaimed albums on Rough Trade and touring the world with his band, currently Jeffrey Lewis & The Jrams (with Heather Wagner on drums and different people on bass).
In addition to headlining tours, Jeffrey has often shared gigs with the likes of Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Roky Erickson, The Mountain Goats, The Fall, Daniel Johnston, Devo, Adam Green, Pulp and other luminaries. In between his hypnotically moving folk narratives and his fuzzed-up indie-punk songs, Jeffrey also harnesses his comic book interests to create and perform “low budget videos,” colorfully illustrated visual songs on historical topics (like “The History of Communism”), or strange flights of fancy (like “The Creeping Brain”). Jeffrey has self-published eleven issues of his comic book series Fuff, and Jeffrey’s writing, illustrations, comic books and music have been featured by The Guardian, The History Channel and The New York Times (among other places).
