Jeffrey Lewis has announced new single ‘Just Fun’, taken from upcoming album ‘The EVEN MORE Freewheelin’ Jeffrey Lewis’, set for release on 21st March via Blang Records.
The new album was recorded over four days in Nashville with producer Roger Moutenot, known for his work with Yo La Tengo and Lewis’s previous album ‘Bad Wiring’. The record features Jeffrey Lewis & The Voltage, comprising Brent Cole on drums, Mem Pahl on bass and Mallory Feuer on violin and keyboard.
‘Just Fun’, recorded as a lo-fi acoustic track, explores themes of parenthood, romance and creativity. The single arrives with a static timelapse video directed by Jak Kerley, featuring a cameo appearance from Joanna Sternberg.
“Joanna lives in the same building-complex as my cousin Edye (& her bf Keith) who play the parents in the first verse so I figured we could multitask while filming there and go meet Joanna for a quick scene,” Lewis explains. “Also the snowy daytime street where I do the unclothed part is the ‘Freewheelin’ corner of Jones & W 4th St, from the 1963 Dylan album and my album.”
