Bio
I never check this site anymore. if you need to contact me write me at Facebook or jackthunderlewis at gmail.com I've been living in Portland, Oregon since 2006. At the moment I live in the South East. I like playing music, making art, ping pong and so much more. If you live here and want to try to collaborate in one of these activities let me know. .... TO HEAR ABOUT UPCOMING SHOWS IN PORTLAND SEND ME AN E-MAIL JEWIS22@HOTMAIL.COM (SUBJECT: MAILING LIST) .... Some press on Portland's Localcut.com (http://blogs.wweek.com/music/2009/07/01/jacklewis-twigs-kids-in-parking-lot-new-eltro-self-released/).. ...... .... I played Mikrofest 13. it was awesome. .. .......... Listen to a show I played -live ('ish) at .. .. KPSU.. (thanks to Arya and Tony for having us).. It's at the start of Arya's Sound Judgment on 02/26/2008 - 12:03am. 11pm .. < .... From the Williamette Weekly [SINGER-SONGWRITER] It's never easy to live under the shadow of a well-known sibling, but for Jack Lewis, younger brother of Crass-obsessed NYC crooner Jeffrey Lewis, any direct comparisons are left to the wind the first time he opens his mouth. More Jonathan Richman to his bro's John Darnielle, Jack's songs feature fewer inside jokes but are just as charming and clever in their own right, full of fake laments ("The Day Neil Young Died") and quirky come-ons (the indelible "you danced your ass off" refrain from "New Year's Day.") Amazingly, things never get too tongue-in-cheek, staying sweet throughout—and if you don't believe it, just, umm, look it up in the OED. MICHAEL MANNHEIMER. 8 pm. Artistery, All ages. .... ...... .... Bearded Magizine put my album on it's best of 2007 list. Which was nice of them. .... .... A ..Video.. for shadow party was just made by Hedi in Germany. (the music is the demo 4 track version) .... Here's some info about my first band (not counting my brother's band) -

Your song "THE UPSIDE DOWN CROSS" is one of the most brilliant recordings
