BUY TICKETS FOR JEFFREY LEWIS AT THE CLUNY, NEWCASTLE


We are so stoked to have Jeff and his band back for the first time since our show in 2007.

If you haven't seen him before you may appreciably wonder why Jeff is practically a household name among indie rock fans of every stripe; his band's live show with Modern Lovers style rawk, strummy anti folk and illustrated storytelling are totally unique, inspiring and characterful and this tour for the new record A Turn In The Dream Songs is the best chance in the universe to check it out.

the initiated can sweat out the excitement for new Fuff and incredibly literate and witty new tunes, from someone who's been caught up touring lectures on Watchmen and writing songwriting guides for The New York Times.
