     Garland Jeffreys is from Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. He majored in art history at Syracuse University where he met Lou Reed, before The Velvet Underground became active. In 1966, Jeffreys began to play in Manhattan nightclubs including Gerde's Folk City, The Bitter End, Gaslight, Kenny's Castaways and later Reno Sweeney, where he began to explore racially conscious themes in his work and transverse the musical genres of rock and roll, reggae, blues and soul.
    He has since released over a dozen albums, including 2011’s critically lauded, “The King of In Between”
