TWO BIG NIGHTS!!
GARLAND JEFFREYS AND HIS 8 PIECE ROCK & ROLL
BAND
ROCK THE VILLAGE UNDERGROUND,
FEB
28TH & MARCH 1ST
The
legendary Garland Jeffreys doesn't fit into neat
little boxes: his thoughtful, passionate songs
mix new wave, soul, reggae, garage rock, doo-wop
and Latin influences to create a deeply personal
hybrid that reflects his own multiethnic roots.
A New York native and veteran of the fertile mid-70’s
and early 80’s scene that included peers
like Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed, Graham Parker
& the Rumour, Southside Johnny, Mink DeVille,
and Phoebe Snow, Jeffreys’ passionate songs
range from streetwise urban-romantic love songs
to penetrating social critiques tackling issues
of race in America (on his album "Don't Call
Me Buckwheat"), which has been called “one
of the most important, hard hitting records since
Marvin Gaye's masterpiece 'What's Going On.'"
