From the Williamette Weekly (Thanks Mike) [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, 4315 SE Division St., 803-5942. $4. All ages.
