Juliette Lewis is definitely one of the more successful examples of Hollywood actresses turned musicians. Nitty, gritty, soulful and hella flexible, she puts on one hell of a live show.--- Her dynamic stage presence didn't translate to Red Butte Garden's bucolic setting two weeks ago when she opened for The Pretenders. Sitting on a hill watching her display a keen grip on pilates, one couldn't help yearn for a time machine to travel back to Harry O's circa 2004 when Lewis blew away folks attending the Sundance Film Festival. Methinks she'll recapture that energy Oct. 7 when she headlines Club Vegas along with openers The Ettes and American Bang!
She's no Chrissie Hynde, but the show should be a raucous good time.
