In this episode of Around Town with Mike Jeffers, he talks with Claire Jefferys, wife of acclaimed New York musician Garland Jeffreys, about her powerful new documentary, “Garland Jeffreys: The King of In Between.” Co-directed with filmmaker Evan M. Johnson, the documentary explores the extraordinary life of Garland Jeffreys—an artist who broke boundaries as a biracial rock & roll trailblazer, poet, and activist. From the streets of Brooklyn to international stages, Garland’s story unfolds through archival footage, rare performances, and insightful interviews. Claire shares the behind-the-scenes journey of making the film and offers a firsthand look into the interviews with Bruce Springsteen, Harvey Keitel, Laurie Anderson, and many more. These tributes from friends and collaborators paint a vivid picture of Garland’s influence on music and culture over the last several decades.  Don’t miss the exclusive screening of the documentary on June 28, 2025, at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago. The event will include a Q&A with the filmmakers and special appearances by Jon Langford and Nicholas Tremulis, both of whom have personal connections to Garland’s work and legacy.
