Most people know Jenny Lewis as the little girl from The Golden Girls who wanted her teddy bear back, but a small amount of mom and dad hipsters know about the music Lewis has made with jazz-twee combo Rilo Kiley and under the solo moniker of “Jenny Lewis.” After releasing The Voyager and touring in support of said album last year, a lot of people at the Village Pantry I attend have been asking the cashier, “When is that Benny Lewis going to tour again?”
First of all, the name is Jenny Lewis, idiots (I’ve only said it like 50 times already!), and, yes, she’s going to tour this spring. Before you go buy tickets at Village Pantry, let me remind you that Lewis and Jonathan Rice recently released a song, titled “In April,” for the firm “Song One”:
Also, my friend Dunny is a big fan of the movie The Wizard, which Jenny Lewis was in. So I’d like for all of my fans to go to Dunny’s GoFundMe page to donate as many tickets to Coachella so Dunny can live his dream of seeing Jenny Lewis before he dies of natural causes. Thank you all for your support and daily heaps of fan mail. It means a little to me.
