Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage – announce a headline show at The Grand Social, Dublin

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 forthcoming new album “The EVEN MORE Freewheelin’ Jeffrey Lewis” (March 21, 2025) was recorded in Nashville by Roger Moutenot (Yo La Tengo, Lou Reed), the same producer as their previous official album “Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage: Bad Wiring” which was released in Nov 2019 (to rave reviews).  Between 2019’s “Bad Wiring” and the upcoming 2025 album Jeffrey digitally self-released five DIY albums from his apartment (spawned by the pandemic-pause on normal touring and recording). 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. 

The current 4-piece touring line-up of Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage includes Mallory Feuer on violin and keyboard, Kait Pelkey on bass and Brent (Moldy Peaches) Cole on drums.
