Jeffrey Lewis & the Voltage

"Weird? Very... but also downright inspiring" (\\) - Rolling Stone

"Jeffrey Lewis is an amazing musician, and if you don't know his songs you probably have a hole in your heart that can only be filled by his words... I did!" - Regina Spektor

The mind-spinning indie-rock/folk/art of Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage developed when songwriter and comic book artist Jeffrey Lewis began recording homemade cassettes in New York City in 1998; his critically acclaimed, unusual and word-dense songs lead to Jeffrey signing to Rough Trade Records in 2001 (record label of The Smiths, The Strokes, etc.), and the project evolved into a live touring cult sensation around the world. Creating a brilliant style of scuzzy urban indie-rock-folk, like a 21st Century mash-up of Sonic Youth, Pete Seeger and R. Crumb, Jeffrey's band has played countless gigs all over the world, including playing as the opening act for icons like the Mountain Goats, Daniel Johnston, Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks, Dinosaur Jr, The Fall, Dr. Dog, Pulp, Roky Erickson, The Vaselines, and more.

The new album "The EVEN MORE Freewheelin' Jeffrey Lewis" (March 21, 2025) was recorded in Nashville by Roger Moutenot (Yo La Tengo, Lou Reed). With or without bandmates Jeffrey continues to wring folksy spiel and garage bohemianism from his ramshackle guitar, while incorporating his often politically subversive visual artwork and cartoons into live appearances.
